By painting less details, things start to look more real. By keeping it loose it looks more alive and expressive. Simplifying shapes and abstracting is key, our brain fills in the gaps. By painting everything out you loose a lot of that and it starts to look bad and stiff.

Sorry about the constant posting about politics, you're probably gonna see that a bunch today and hopefully I won't sound too dreadful about it, even if the worst comes.

Funny how media coverage of the unprecedented kidnapping of a foreign head of state, in gross violation of international law, has just completely evaporated only two weeks after it happened.

Nearly three years of war have plunged Sudan “into an abyss of unimaginable dimensions” and human rights must be at the centre of efforts to end the fighting and build lasting peace, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights said on Sunday in Nairobi.

It’s way past time to start making the corporations suffer. They aren’t standing up for their consumers. This country is run by money and greed. That’s all they know and all they will listen to. If people can’t or won’t buy their products, this shit would end.

It’s CONVENIENT for them for us to wait around for an election. The media convinces us that voting will be a solution. It’s all very intentional. People wait around for YEARS without organizing.

This was one of my favourite streets to paint in Cambridge when I regularly set off on my bicycle with my watercolours. It is Portugal Place and like many of my street scenes it is now on someone else's wall. #streetart #watercolour #Cambridge
