Another section of the concertina sketchbook done. Using the sun stamp to link the collages together to get some flow happening. Pausing every so often b/c of the interesting articles in the #nationalgeographic mags. I have some from the 60’s. Great #opshop finds

Collage of drawn and painted textures with photograph of a diver photographing a whale.

Group shot of some oldish National Geographic magazines. Cover stories include ‘Building a Better Athlete’ and ‘Last Tribes of the Amaron’

"Most likely, Albanese and other world leaders are courting Trump simply to keep lines to Washington open, looking forward to the day when he is replaced by a functioning president and American global leadership returns.” satpa.pe/rBl6cbf

Albanese’s folly of pandering to Donald Trump

ANALYSIS: The prime minister’s flattery of Donald Trump may be about preserving US relations, but he ought to focus on leaders who will really shape Australia’s future.

'Le Pont du Labastide' (1905) is one of Henri Martin’s final divisionist paintings, a composition of monumental grandeur. What I admire about this work is that he does not sacrifice his subject matter in favour of balanced design or chromatic richness; it's a scene as he saw it.
