Peggy: So I hear you have a show next week.
Marco: Yeah, it’s gonna be pretty rad. I got a fucking street vendor to cater. Gonna be completely epic. Halal food all the way, baby.
Peggy: Awesome. Are you going to show off those oils you painted last year? The ones of the crying Jesus clowns?
Marco: No, man. I can’t get into oil anymore. I felt way too constrained by the brushstrokes. I mean, perspective and all that shit is so fucking limiting. I felt like I was trapped in a freaking box with no airholes punched in it. Totally wasting the fuck away.
Peggy: Oh, I get it. So is it sculptures then? I totally dug that series you did based on all your friend’s faces mid-orgasm.
Marco: Sculpture. Merely reproducing the three dimensions of a blank, flat reality in clay. Playing at being God like a child mucking about with Play-Doh. Really, Pegs, I expected a little more mindfulness from someone who creates the soul-searing electro-synth beats that you do.
Peggy: Jesus, Marco, then what are you showing?
Marco: Well, few people know this, but as a child I had few friends. I spent much of my days in quiet isolation with my Etch-A-Sketch, rendering portraits of the companions of my imagination.
Peggy: So you’re going to do pictures on Etch-A-Sketchs, that’s pretty sweet, actually.
Marco: Fuck, Peggy, weren’t you listening?
Peggy: Huh?
Marco: I said I drew portraits of my imaginary friends…
Peggy: So the Etch-A-Sketchs will be…
Marco: Blank.
Peggy: … Dude, I miss the crying Jesus clowns.
