pencils and paintbrushes!!

Wed Aug 19, 2009, 2:54 PM
I have free time now that I have finished working for the next month and a bit.....here's hoping I will be able to keep the turnover up for a few weeks! I'm feeling inspired!

Today, I was walking around Birmingham with my mum today and there was a gallery on Colmore Row setting up some really awesome Rolf Harris paintings (original impressionist oils) for an exhibition tomorrow night (6-8pm). They let us look at what was up already, but there's going to be loads more there tomorrow night. We got invited and everything (dunno what vibes we must have been giving off). Anyway, if anyone by any chance reads this and wants to go - his art is AMMMAZING!! and he is so underrated....he's not all kangaroos and wobble boards afterall it seems!! haha! he captures the image and colours so beautifully without needing fine details, and the light.....just so cool!! If you want to go then just go to Snow Hill station, and from walking out the station you turn right and walk on the right side of the road, all the way up towards the library, but when you get about level with the entrance end of the C of E cathedral (St Philips?) look to the shops on your side of the road and that's it!!
I'll just go get a job in advertising and PR now.... ;)

Hey Fiona,

apologies for the lateness of the reply. Argggggggh yeah, Untitled 88 was done on black card with white conte. Also, 'they' are noses. Don't like that picture much looking back, it was done from back around my last comment in 2005. God I sound like a fucker there'.

I'm tired, I'll get back to you when I wake up sometime. Take it easy.
