Painting a tart


If you paint a strawberry tart that's it!..there's no story,naration,mood,atmosphere you can't identify with having been there or felt like that, it is simply an object..would you hang a pickled onion on your wall it may be well done but hardly a talking point, oh look an onion yeh right!

What happened to he looks sad or it makes me happy or i feel i know him.

A painting now and then


It's strange how some paintings take forever, and get few comments and others seem to take 5 mins and are appreciated, maybe it's like constable's oil sketches now regarded by many as superiour to his polished peices where he slaved over them for months.., there's no ryme or reason to art, drive's you bloody mad!
