I love the message!  And, it's a really nice painting, too!

Thanks Steve.  Was the use of the word 'job' a biblical pun?  If so, I like it.  Considering what's in store for Eve, a taste for domination would be, perhaps, well advised.  But I do so hate that stupid book, 50 Shades of Gray -- it's the worst-written book I ever started to read.

This is my tongue-in-cheek take on the Genesis story. I think it fits into my mythological series. I guess some people won’t like it because they feel that mythological stories from the Abrahamic tradition should be privileged. Obviously, I don’t think that. The fact that the fruit of the tree of knowledge (of good and evil) is traditionally depicted as an apple strikes me as odd. It seemed to me it should be a book. Books are where we get our most dangerous and exciting ideas. And there’s nothing more dangerous than letting women get their hands on books, is there? Next thing, they start getting uppity.
