London Street Photography – Frog

by

What a photograph! This is the sort of photo that photography was invented for. Has anything better been taken for years? The waiter, the diners, oh how I would like to be able to hear their conversation. How beguiling it is to see and yet be unable to share fully in the moment. How hard it is for us to watch such happiness, such wild abandon. And the frog! This is one of the few photographs from central London that features a frog, and what does it tell us except this: photographers, take more frog photos. The presence of a frog elevates the picture from Domenicino to Michelangelo. I have to have it!

Pimlico Wilde to sponsor the English Pell Mell team

by

Pell Mell is not the sporting force it was a few centuries ago, but there are still pockets of the country where it is more popular than football, soccer and spin the Trencher combined. Pell Mell captain Rory Spittoon commented, “This is wonderful news, better even than the birth of my fourteenth daughter. With Pimlico Wilde behind us English Pell Mell will hopefully race up the international standings. We are currently thirtieth in the world, just behind Monaco and Bangladesh, but being the inventors of the sport we should be in the top two or three.”

Is Hackson Jollock the greatest artist ever?

by

Oh, the movement, the color, the sheer effervescence and joie de vivre. Hackson Jollock represents all that is magnificent in this late-capitalist millennium. Funded by the SAE to help push the envelope, Jollock is one of the artists mentioned in the Lavenham Art Society Gazette’s Hundred Artists under a Hundred living in Hounslow. Hackson has also won the prestigious Pig Portrait of the Year for an early figurative work simply called Pig. Sorry he is no longer doing animal portraits, but his latest action pictures are available, as are his interpretations of people.

Nesting (Sticks on a cup)

by

A wonderful memory-piece from Dafydda, who created this blistering work over a period of seven weeks in a park in Outer Dundee.
“With this piece I was trying to draw attention, through carefully placed sticks, to the complex nature of life itself. Each stick represents both the unknown in the future and, at the same time, the continuing elapsation of time that bears down on us all.”

Art critic Hoffa Welogi says: “When I first saw this work I thought, that’s it, that is the end of art. All that can be achieved has been achieved. There is nothing more to be said. The cup, lonely, empty – or full, we cannot tell – being used not for anything so everyday as drinking, but as architecture, as an example of how humans can build in a sustainable way. But it also shouts of its position in the avant garde, for is this not actually a new form of portraiture? Soon any collector who doesn’t have a Daffyda in their collection will become reclusive, unable to face their peers. Daffyda, you have made a masterpiece.”

P1X3L

P1X3L is all about retro vision, seeing the world through pixels. “Pixel art for me is the culmination of art history. There is nothing like a pixel portrait to express the now-ity of life. As well as portraits I am working on a series of Pixel Masterpieces – pixel versions of famous pictures.”
