This pink form?thing is over-indulging in its own sense of misery/tragedy!!!!!!!!!!!

this piece is entitled "family 1" it represents the fact that families generally share the same DNA and family characteristics ( hence the colours) however some family members have different personalities!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Again, simple pleasures of a summer holiday

lots of stuff

A lot has been happening (creatively speaking) since my last blog..around 1866!!! without furtyher ado..the stuff i've been working on

the missing link

Turmoil within the mind. I've been busy working on three sets of new ideas.

The first of these involved touching base again with the work and techniques of the old masters, namely Hogarth and Hans Holbein the younger. Different reasons for looking again at these two artists. Hogarth, because of the content and comment of his work and Holbein because of his sublime draughtmanship.

The second of these : observing, drawing and painting fruit, which may seem and probably is, as

mundane a subject that is possible.Why paint fruit? Well there's a subversive twist to these 'still' lifes..trust me!! Harmlessly commercial..perhaps..any depth to these 'pot boilers'...perhaps..i'll

say no more!!

The third of these: Studying the great 'commercial artists' from the 30's onwards.

What is the correlation between these three seemingly different genres?..watch this space
