Surfing around the web I came across www.clampart.com I can recommend.

The site includes work by

JAMES BIDGODD - "homoerotic imagery in the style of Pierre et Gilles"

JOYCE TENNESON - "flowers"

and

MARC YANKUS

FIRST SUMMER PICNIC

It's very warm and sunny with a cooling sea breeze in Brighton. Perfect for the first picnic of the summer. Derek is coming down from London to join Steve and me for the day. The perfect camp affair - champagne and quiche in the regency gardens of the Royal Pavilion. This is a painting I did of the site a couple of years ago.

I WAS WONDERING WHY .....

PEOPLE MAKE STRANGE FACES WHENEVER THERE IS A CAMERA IN THE ROOM ....?

ARTY TUESDAY

AM BACK FROM A LONG WEEKEND IN BELFAST
THIS IS A PORTRAIT I DID FOR MY MOTHER ON HER 80 TH BIRTHDAY
SHE DIDN'T LIKE IT BECAUSE IT MADE HER LOOK OLD !!!

BELFAST

Going to Belfast to visit Mum and my sister for the weekend so will be away for a few days . Next post will be on Tuesday 6th June. Managed to get cheap flights from Gatwick to Belfast - at £40 return one wonders how long these flights will be available and at what cost to the environment we leap into the air at every opportunity. I still find 40 minutes and £20 per flight just too too attractive!!

THURSDAY 1st JUNE

A new month and a fairly busy day ahead.
Need to spend a few hours in the charity shop this morning and sort out enough stock to last for the next five days. I go to Belfast tomorrow for the weekend to visit family.
Bills to pay before I go and last minute travel plans to Gatwick to make.
