The Wailing on Witch Mountain
OCT 25, 2015
It is said that at Samhain the membrane that separates the ones who are living from the ones who have gone before stretches to its thinnest, and may even become so insubstantial that voices and visions and other strange things will pass between.
A spooky, high-spirited romp, like a wolf dancing and howling at the moon, in celebration of the only question that, ultimately, is worth asking.
New Logo by Doping-Pong
AUG 06, 2015
It is with profound pleasure that I proudly announce the official debut of my arts production company¹s new logo. This image was designed and made at my request by the graphic arts house Doping-Pong, under the guidance of renowned Russian artist Dmitry Mishenin.
I first made the acquaintance of Dima Mishenin about a decade ago. We have since enjoyed a rich correspondence, mostly around discussions of art and its role as a driver in culture and spiritual awareness. Dima¹s evocative paintings have been, and continue to be, an inspiration to me. Of note, the Doping-Pong art house was commissioned to produce the nationally endorsed promotional images for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Russia.
So when it came time to adopt a logo for BobbyBeauSoleil.com I naturally turned to my friend Dima, a true master of the iconic image. I left it entirely to his considered judgment what sort of symbolic image would be most appropriate for my company. A few months later Dima sent me several variations of the logo concept he had come up with, all of them involving an image of the classic Cupid, some incorporating a top hat.
I must confess that I initially felt some ambivalence about this choice of motif for my company logo. Back in 1965 when I was a beardless boy of 16 and a part of the emerging counter-culture scene on the streets of west Los Angeles, I didn¹t mind being called by the nickname Cupid. The girls who came out to hang out with us on the Sunset Strip loved it, after all. But around the time I turned 20, with aspirations to be a tough guy on a motorcycle, I was ready to leave the Cupid nickname behind, and actively resisted being called by that name. I¹ve never been able to shake it entirely, however.
Now, despite my initial ambivalence, I knew right off that Dima had pulled a rabbit out of his hat (pun intended). This image seems to me to hit all the right notes playful, mischievous, light-hearted, with just a hint of erotic, dark mystery. This image is the brand symbol by which my production company will now and forever be known.
Thank you, Dima!
