Sunday painter. Education. Strong ability to detect my typos & poor grammar upon posting.
The time spent & genre are correct.
Not sure about those top songs though?
Surely the heavily promoted Sombr would have achieved a top 5 spot…

Ollie put in a big effort at the table & quit while he was ahead.

If you can let it slide, it can be funny...

Look at this one I found the other day. From Emilie Autumn's, The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls

Yr 12 student's ceramic sculpture finished.

Kids working with clay are resilient; they withstand the trials & error of the process. We worked together; experimenting with forms & glazing techniques.

As I'm not a ceramics specialist I'm proud of being able to guide her & the end result.

Contrast colour landscape finally finished.

Working without black or white, to convey tone & using the vibrancy of opposite colours, side by side.

BT - Bush Turkey is back for his inspection, wandering up the garden path.

He’s nosy but I love him.

Without fail, the resident bush turkey comes at 5:00pm and surveys the grounds.

He’s fabulous.

After Edward Seago,The Harvest Field.

Using a wider brush helps to loosen up. I am enjoying landscape as it’s more forgiving.

The same for young people, now wearing thick tracksuits, socks & slides, Birkenstocks & Crocs. Once ugly, now mainstream. That said, these ugly products are still labelled & expensive.
So, it’s how our visual language of fashion gets subverted & becomes acceptable.

Secondly, this new fashion ‘ugliness’ comes with its own costs, standards, and aesthetic rules.
Take the mullet hairstyle which is currently fever pitch in Australia thanks to it’s uptake by local sportsmen.
