You wait months for a new post then two come along at once!
I have a new enthusiasm for a Precisionist artist by the name of Scheeler - his pieces featuring trains, turbines and other machinery really fit in with the theme of my recent work.
I've been working on decay both urban and organic and I'm really fascinated by rusting train running gear.
Well, Mr Scheeler's train (in the painting Rolling Power) is all shiny and state of the art, for the time, whilst my work is the con-rod, wheel and general running gear of a very rusty old loco that sits in a park around here somewhere.
Maybe my piece should be called rusting power?
What? I haz blog?
