Anne Frank describes Chicago in 2025
After a long while stored behind a door I decided to have one of my oil paintings from life framed. Done fast without refining I was inspired by the 1st painting I fell in love with.. Cézanne’s The Gardener.

Hi @davidbezartist.bsky.social
I got your painting back from the framers. ( took a while as I had one of my big painting framed as well) I decided to not put it under glass as I love the texture. It’s now in pride of place in my hallway. Thank you again. It’s perfect.

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country.
They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

Today's portrait: Lyle and Woody. Drawn in Derwent colour pencils on mount board. A large piece though I can't quite remember the exact dimensions.

We’ve had my mum’s fox terrier since my mum went into hospital in early Dec. Our girl has now accepted him and he’s become more tolerant. They have started to lie together and it’s heartwarming.

With its thriving port, picturesque architecture and the beautiful surrounding countryside, the coastal town of Kirkcudbright in Scotland has attracted artists from the 19thC onwards. Samuel Peploe's paintings of the town (this is from around 1917) emphasise the geometry of its buildings.

The park is famous for ancient trees, but also for being the home of the greatest oak that ever lived, Majesty 😊🌳

This work by Elisabeth Vellacott shows airmen listening to a musical evening at the manor house in Hemingford Grey in Cambridgeshire during WW2; her figurative scenes display an affinity with English folk art and fall within the tradition of Blake, Turner and Palmer and latterly Winifred Nicholson.
