I like the idea that then people didn't see themselves as artists but just went ahead and did what came natural. I think the modern day caveman is more urban and would draw graffiti rather than animals. It's a strange idea I suppose bit that is what I was thinking about when I did this.<BR/><BR/>Angela<BR/>Well I have had my break now and I am back with a new sense of freedom to pursue whatever I feel like without thinking about exhibitions.Philiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16068141700005383278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203307864603700217.post-84189526186900543692009-01-09T18:33:00.000+01:002009-01-09T18:33:00.000+01:00Sometimes it's the smaller pieces that take the mo...Sometimes it's the smaller pieces that take the most effort and time. A lot of pressure to express in a small space.<BR/><BR/>And sometimes a break is just what's needed. Seems to be the case for you.Angela Wales Rocketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12654076879838820652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203307864603700217.post-72487097435685552682009-01-09T17:29:00.000+01:002009-01-09T17:29:00.000+01:00This a very interesting piece, Philip.

I don't know if this is what you were trying to convey but, the sense I get from this painting is of how language not only encircles too protect the individual from the multi-varied and textured world, it also in the end devours the individual.Chris Sotiriadishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455915227966453995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203307864603700217.post-20976653581454222232009-01-09T16:00:00.000+01:002009-01-09T16:00:00.000+01:00I like that this painting has the same textural el...I like that this painting has the same textural elements and the "rock" photo on your photos blog.Ed Maskevichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06505691052584290449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203307864603700217.post-60753126057817484172009-01-09T15:41:00.000+01:002009-01-09T15:41:00.000+01:00JafabritThanks.

I think the reason is partly the break but also because I am no longer bogged down by the need to plan and theme for an exhibition. I am just seeing what happens without any constraints and I am enjoying it.Philiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16068141700005383278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203307864603700217.post-84887191616561492092009-01-09T14:51:00.000+01:002009-01-09T14:51:00.000+01:00I think it must have been the right thing to take ...I think it must have been the right thing to take a break. I am seeing you bringing together your prior experience and a new vitality. Your landscape painting is wonderful.<BR/><BR/>I am like you, or perhaps it is a British thing, but friends are those who develop over time like a fine wine. I think the term friend is the wrong term for social networks. Some people collect them like fleas lol! sometimes though it is a way of bookmarking, and I have quite a few friends on blogcatlog and flickr. It is a convenient way of keeping track of bloggers' whose blog I enjoyed visiting and want to check out now and again.jafabrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490900607853203086noreply@blogger.com
