ABOVE: Polaroid photo of Talented Professional Straight Female Artist Jane Rubin and My Talented Husband, Derreck Alexander — who shot the photo — at our East Village apartment in 1999. I am not wild. I do not party. I have never been overweight. Derreck and I were a faithful couple for 12 years. I am a Painter, Composer, Choreographer — I am not a writer. For now, I have to use words, to state the facts and to stop jealous haters from continuing to lie about me — and I am definitely not anyone's fan.

You can see a full-screen slideshow of the paintings and drawings I made at men's basketball and baseball games on a desktop computer with no words.

Drawing from life of my husband, Derreck Alexander, at our apartment, in 2003.

It is racist, anti-Semitic and misogynist to wrongly stereotype us as "freaks." We were NOT wild. I do NOT party. We were a faithful couple.

During the 1990s, I began painting and drawing male athletes while they were playing basketball. In 2006, I began painting at pro baseball games. My first, natural art form was dance. Dance professionals assessed me as having the talent to dance professionally, but I was forced to quit training in my pre-teens.

Jane Rubin: Dancer Who Paints.

Painting and drawing someone who is not moving had become so easy for me that it was boring me.

So, during 1997–98, before Derreck Alexander and I met, while I was still a single, straight female artist who is conservative in my personal life compared to most other single women... I do not go to clubs, bars, and parties, and I do not smoke pot or use any drugs, and I rarely drink... during the daytime...

I started going to the park down the street to draw men (of all races) in motion playing basketball, and that evolved into going to pro basketball tournaments and a few NBA games, and from 2006 to 2012, baseball games, to create a series of live-action, formalist paintings and drawings that are also choreographic and musical.

I am not a female Warhol who was depicting celebrity athletes.

I am a multi-talented Dancer-Painter-Musician who can see, sense, and physically feel where other athletes are in space without thinking about it, in real-time. I often painted and drew at games without looking down at the paper. This body of art represents my combined talents. It's not about them.

Yes, I am a straight woman. But I have never been "cruising" anyone. That dumb slander comes from envious women, militant women, and playboy athletes and entertainers who felt rejected and wounded by me.

Additionally, I am a contemporary, heterosexual female artist who has been painting and drawing positive images of men (not "angry feminist" ones) since the 1980s — but I do not have an aggressive male libido. I do not sleep around.

Anyone smearing Jane Charlap Cohen Rubin — i.e. cheating — i.e. any tricky dick/diana or lumbering, rabid, mad-dog mobster desperately hawking and marketing her/himself — unoriginally, of course — like any common junior-high clique — as "Kat, Kitty, Heather-the-Helper," or some type of delicate flower or French pastry — those gang-banging P.T. Barnums are definitely not delicate...along with their "protectors"...who have enviously smeared me with sleazy nicknames for decades — spinelessly exploiting their mass media platforms/sports-entertainment money/corp-gov't protectors...to smear/stalk/hack — while they rip me off — an Independent American Artist — anyone who does that is a liar...

Duh...

That's exactly why those spineless worms use junior-high nicknames, McCarthyist hoaxes, and neo-Nazi animal analogies — but never my real name — because they are lying about me — a woman whom they have never met.

And they also do not want to give me direct publicity and name recognition of any kind.

The liars are just envious of Jane Charlap Cohen Rubin — a Multi-Talented, Straight, Biological Female, an Attractive, Physically Fit Jewish Woman who Defies Stereotypes — not a comic, not someone else's flack, not anyone's backstage thinker...

When people are envious of talent, they spread lies. When others hear those lies, if they are also envious types, they will believe bad stuff about the person whom they envy...and if you are the talented target of that and too humble about yourself...like I was...and say nothing...their lies will spread like cancer.

They are dirty and envious.

I am clean and I am stopping their lies.

Jane Charlap Cohen Rubin — is a Painter, Composer, Choreographer — identified for my inherited talents in early childhood — who is also original and competes fairly.

What the Whitney Museum of American Art Curator said...

In 2002, when Lawrence Rinder, Curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art, visited my studio and saw earlier live-action drawings I had made of male basketball players starting in 1998, he said “Beautiful!”

The above watercolor was painted several years later at a baseball game in 2010 while the athlete was on deck in front of me. I never stop and think. I can paint and draw people moving in real time from my own ballerina coordination and muscle memory.

You can see a full-screen slide show of the art I made of male basketball players at their games on a desktop. I do not stop and think while painting athletes in real time. I am a Dancer Who Paints, and I am a Musician — a Pianist. I can paint and draw other people, moving, without thinking, accurately.

In 2002, Larry Rinder asked me when I was going to create large ones…I did not have the space or funds, and the financial obstacles became severe due to criminal and civil abuses of myself, Derreck, and my family.

My faithfully married parents: Bud Rubin and Peggy (Cohen) Rubin

You are looking at my parents, Bud and Peggy Rubin, who were a totally monogamous, devoted married couple from the day they fell in love in the 1950s to the day of my Dad's (wrongful) death in March 2018. They instilled strong family values, self-discipline, and an open mind in myself and my sisters.

There has been so much envious, hater slander and criminal bullying of me — by envious low-lifes and bigots — unable to compete fairly — exploiting their mass media power to cheat against me — and also projecting their own wild lives onto me — that now I have to say something about it, frequently — and take legal action. Anyone else would have done so years ago.

I am a talented female artist who made a serious body of art at men's basktball and baseball games. I was not at any game to chase or cruise anyone...and I had Derreck Alexander's full support and trust...and I was always faithful to him.

I also fully support women of all races, religions and orientations succeeding in sports and in all professions, but I do not paint and draw other women due to traumas caused by female abusers in my childhood. It is re-traumatizing.

I also do NOT judge other people's lifestyles as long as they are not abusing anyone.

Jane Rubin: American Artist and United States Citizen...

Not the property or teammate of the junior-high mob — whose bloated, alcohol-soaked bodies are broken down — their brains damaged — and their careers basically over by 42.

Their workout is my warmup.

If you lie about the fact that I am a naturally straight, naturally feminine, biological woman — any occasional physical interaction I had with a woman in the 1980s and my temporarily androgynous clothing and hairstyle in the early 80s — was solely the result of being bullied, intimidated and re-traumatized by unstable/militant women to whom I never had a physical response — and — I was never in any relationship with any woman — and if you think you've "got something on Jane Rubin" because you know the names of those militant women from the 1980s... as the saying goes... give them enough rope, they'll hang themselves... happy to have them answer questions about the 1980s under oath where they would have to confess to their abusive and re-traumatizing behavior towards me... which also traumatized my liberal family... a family that has supported their civil and marriage rights decades before any U.S. President or the New York Times. I am a CSA Survivor and survivor of other traumas in childhood, mainly perpetrated by female abusers, and if you lie about me, discriminate against me, bully, harass, stalk, and steal from me, if you smear me as a closet case, a slut, an animal, fat, unclean, a Jewish Princess, disloyal, a spy, or a racist Jewish Girl (because I don't paint women of color... I don't paint white women either... I don't paint Jewish women either... or because I was with a Black Man... when I fully support women of color having a white/Jewish spouse or partner)... or if you smear my talented, courageous father and grandfather or any of my overly humble family members...and if you anti-Semitically "Jew" me by falsely calling me a "funny/intellectual writer/thinker" while at the same time enviously smearing my natural and inherited artistic, athletic and musical talents...

Trust me...

There will be legal action against you — a legal process in a court of law — that you will lose.

For many years, like my family, I was far too nice, too humble.

NOT ANYMORE!

GOD BLESS AMERICA!
