the big picture more photos

More photo's of the big picture, with most of the people to blame, or thank !apologies for quality of some of the pictures not all were taken by my own expert but wobbly hand!


the big picture 08

if anyone has looked for these and not found, apologies; I forgot to put these photo's on, Here are the results of our latest big painting event July 19 at the linskill Centre, a great day was had by all (once the extreme anxiety wore off a little) and the results are impressive. About 60 of us were working away for 4 hours or thereabouts and the resulting painting isl be on show at the centre for the next two years!! worth a look if you are in the vicinity.

this looks canny rural but is in fact urban being the east end of the International Paint factory on the riverside opposite Walker, I have softened it somewhat. this is a second square format version with less contrast in the top part so as not to distract from the centre.
And this is a view of the Tyne Bridge with two seagulls

fell in some mud this morning!

dead babies

is a song by Alice Cooper; don't you know, it's not as horrible as it sounds and like a lot of his early music is a bit of a morality tale designed to startle the unwary.

Anywy this strange sight caught my eye the other day as I cycled from Newcastle funny how the eye is drawn to small but significant shapes.

This on the other hand is a bit of a sublime sky over the golf course, the connection being completely accidental; that is Alice Cooper is an avid (if that's the right word), glofer or golfer or gopher: whatever....

this Beautiful Thief

That is the name of my son Oliver's band he asked me to do some imagery and this is what I came up wiht, acrylic on canvas, I am ready for something new now. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=289503557

this is a quickie I did in class a really interesting house in Cullercoats, I have always liked it especially when the sun is on it.
and some lovely evening clouds; it has been damp windy and at times sunny, good cloud weather.
