some like it less flappy

Saturday 6th October 2007 6:23 PM

This is an example of what I like to call 'textorama'. The up-coming exhibition in Aldeburgh will feature three styles of painting; Still life, (teapots, tobacco and table-tops), Moving life, (flapping bits) and Textorama (still life, despite it all)

Last week I drove the 4,000 mile round trip to Aldeburgh, (I went the scenic route), to check out the gallery. It's a big room with white walls, which, happily, is more or less what I had in mind.

Foxy comments that she likes the tea-pot stuff, but finds the flapping-bits one a bit queasy, due to having to regard one of her siblings as a sexual being. She says I'm a very dif, and very supportively, knowing full well there's a glitch in the comment box facility, Les Miserables agrees with her.

Well, Foxy in the box, I have to admit that the blunt thickness of oil pastel sticks do tend to exaggerate the flappiness of female genitalia, but I like to think this is off-set by the bright colours they afford. I hope the word-art makes you happier, because it's snappier, and less flappier.
