DEJA VU


  Mom, below, is satirized by an artist friend, Peter W. Harvey, for 
painting each door in a London flat in the mid-1950s a different strong color, considered outrageous for the time.    The gold picture rails, I believe, were trendy, but not the colors.   

Recently, when visiting daughter Sarah, on the right, I found her painting similarly strong colours in her daughter's room (chosen by 11 year old Tina).  No pinks or yellows for her anymore!

About Me

My photo
JANUS - looking backwards and forwards is a Janus trait - for me a way to record the "in between thought", whether in retrospect, or as a notion for the future. I make original prints, currently etchings. I sometimes write and take photographs. I am inspired by what I see and read. Although postings are chronologically recorded by date and time in this protocol, the images exhibited, often seen in different stages of production, are from another time. So, with each new posting, earlier postings can undergo revision or amplification as will be noted, or requested. The addition of a SNAPSHOTS Blog and a VIRGINIA WOOLF Blog are included because my different interests tend to influence what I do as an artist. There will be a Family Blog, too, for the same reason.
