the familiarity of gas fittings

 

 

This week I have been busy painting mac-unions, short flare nuts, hex nipples and such like. It helped that I was once a fitter. Other than that I am about to send out my first newsletter where I ask my self some questions and then find I answer only one of them. The questions I am asking are;

  1. Why have I now returned to painting?
  2. Why did I leave painting and take up photography?
  3. Why have I combined painting with photography?
  4. Am I not concerned that I will be accused of slavishly copying a photograph. Isn’t it pointless, all this detail? Art dealers show what’s new, novel and hard to understand, so why am I doing something that looks dumb?
  5. Why am I not seeking a well paid job, or working long hours as a taxi driver because every one else in Wellington seeks high salaries for overseas holidays and big houses?

If you would like to know a little more about me and my art it is not too late to sign up to the newsletter, just go to the newsletter sign up form at the bottom of this post.
