painting act I developed with a dancer and performance artist called Sue Doe. \u00a0It was a sort of Pollockian erotic ritual of pouring, smearing, hurling, and squirting fluorescent paints. \u00a0Glowing colors would drip over contrasting hues in an ever-changing visual explosion, choreographed to music. \u00a0Our performance was featured on HBO&#8217;s magazine show &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0421356\/\" target=\"_blank\">Real Sex<\/a>&#8220;, as part of a segment about the neo-burlesque Blue Angel Cabaret of New York. \u00a0Occasionally I still run into people who remember seeing us on TV. \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/38299545\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a> to see excerpts from a version of this performance we did at one of my art openings.<\/p>\n<p>So we got a bit of low-level fame out of our act, but it was a little too wild and messy for the mainstream stage and we never made much money from it. \u00a0Eventually Sue moved out of town. \u00a0For several years I was known as the blacklight body paint guy and got gigs at parties, nightclubs, and promotional events, painting models or painting on the people attending the party, before I too tired of the nightclub life &#8211; dealing with drunks and taking the Subway home at 3:00 in the morning deafened and crusted in paint. \u00a0This post is a look back at some of the photos that survive from that episode of my career. \u00a0Some of the painting was done in challenging conditions, but I&#8217;ve refrained from retouching the pictures to make the painting look slicker than it did in reality. \u00a0In no particular order, here we go:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3449\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a

my painting was inspired by my intuitive sense of energy patterns within the body. \u00a0In this approach, I have no preconceived design, but just let the brush follow the form and the feel. \u00a0The result is a spontaneous image of the body electric.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3450\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a

target=\"_blank\">blacklight<\/a> is a light source that emits mostly wavelengths too short for the human eye to see. \u00a0It&#8217;s like a visual dog whistle &#8211; the frequency is outside our range. \u00a0You might see a dull violet glow, but otherwise it&#8217;s pretty dark. \u00a0Fluorescent pigments, the kind used in <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Blacklight_paint\" target=\"_blank\">blacklight paints<\/a>, are made from naturally occurring minerals that have a special property: when stimulated by light of any wavelength, they emit light of their own characteristic wavelength. \u00a0Returning to our audio metaphor, imagine the dog whistle causing a string to vibrate a note lower down on the scale.<\/p>\n<p>Fluorescent blacklight-activated pigments are also commonly known as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dayglo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">DayGlo<\/a> colors (actually a brand name), since even in daylight they glow in their own hues more brightly than any ordinary reflective material could. \u00a0Under powerful blacklights, the paint is as bright as neon.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3451\" style=\"width: 421px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
