I wasn’t telling the whole truth about the tits and arses

I bumped into an acquaintance the other night. He was playing pool, and the minute he saw me walk past him, he came over to say hi. I got a friendly smile and a kiss on the mouth and the opening line of “How are the tits and arses?” As questions go, you’d think that that was a little, well, presumptuous of him…. but then, I knew he wasn’t referring to MY tits and arses, well ………not exactly mine, but very much mine, in a way!  He meant my erotic artwork. And he knew I knew that’s what he meant. As opening lines go, it was a good one, and one I respond to with a delighted wicked grin! “Fine, thanks” I said. And we chatted about my recent paintings, and his latest artistic endeavours. He never rates his work enough to want to exhibit it, which is a shame, but there’s no point in exhibiting it if you’re not happy to show the world.

I told him that I’d got an exhibition on at Ticknall Village Hall in Derbyshire this weekend, along with a group of thirty artists. And I joked “But, I won’t be showing the tits and arses, I’ll be putting some landscapes in”. He grinned, and said that was a pity and I agreed. We swapped a few more pleasantries and I left him to get on with his game of pool.

But, I was wrong, although I didn’t know it at the time.

Because I have hung some tits and arses.

And as I hung them, I had some very appreciative comments from my fellow artists about them.

So, now it’ll be interesting to see what the viewing public think of them………………

Especially as two of them will be some of the arses I’ve drawn recently!!! LOL
