St. Mary's and the Pylon diptych.
Here's a photograph of my two paintings of St. Mary's church and the pylon. Summer 2011.
I guess you could call it a diptych.
I used household emulsion tester pots and therefore I was limited with my colour pallate.

An exhibition at Leeds City Art Gallery: Damien Hirst.
The exhibition invites one to be disturbed at the door. How disappointing. In fact the signage plainly states that if one is easily offended then this might not be your cup of tea and perhaps not to bother coming in. Let’s say, if one could be offended by a photograph of a dead man’s head, condensation, and / or bad art then perhaps it would be better to save the train fare and do something less boring instead.
After a quick count there seems to be ten pieces in the exhibition, ranging from what could be loosely transcribed as sculpture, installation and miscellanea. I found the work to be largely uninspiring and felt that the hype leading up to the impromptu collection and the work of the said man himself to be nauseatingly overrated.
Each piece of work resonates with technical assistance and lacks the ability to move, literally. The only message that emanates from the shambolic collection is that conceptual art is mere consumerism that has gone off. Yesterday’s seminal art is today’s car boot sale.

Matt landscape household paint.
I am inspired by the view.Here I used tester pots of matt emulsion.
They don't mix very well at all, so I discovered.

Fourteen Alma Lane Updated.
Here I have updated the original collage of the view from my window at 14 Alma Lane.
This is the only window I had in my room above the newsagents when I was at art college.
I have uploaded the collage into adobe illustrator and reworked the original image.

Even if.
it's inevitable since there's a hole
and the Pantheon floor (mosaic) just gets cordoned off
look at the officials now, organising the rope
it stops silly people slipping
the precipitation is factored in
check out the holes in the floor where the rain can drain
did you not know?
those clever Romans
i bet you thought the oculus is covered by glass
like a lens
you were wrong
silly
my panoramic is not your vista
obviously
here comes the rain again
falling on my head like a memory
falling on my head like a new emotion
