Banksy, Bristol Art Gallery, devolved parliament, record sale price

When I took these photos in April this year in Bristol, I did not

anticipate the painting selling for anything like it did!

Great fun, though.

Salisbury Collage

Tags

collage, found objects, poisoning, Salisbury, Skripal, spy, subliminal, trefoil radiation symbol

I have never noticed that there is a kind of ionising radiation

trefoil symbol on one of the buildings in the roofscape.  Unintentional,

I’m sure.  In line with ‘found objects’ and the subliminal, I only saw it after

I had pasted it on!

 

 

 

 

Collage with Lipstick Background

Tags

dalmations, Deco jewellery, Edwardian society, Jeremy Corbyn, Stalin

I painted the background in Lipstick, or Bordello Red.  It gave the

whole thing a decadent, seedy look and I managed to add Jeremy Corbyn,

Stalin and some Dalmations to the original.  Don’t ask me why!

Book Cover?

Tags

book cover, floral photography, gerbera, Photography

My tentative photo for a book cover.  I like its vibrancy, but

it only really depicts one of the poems I want to include and isn’t

representative enough of all the rest.  Having fun experimenting, though…
