The paint brushes and pencils are cocktail sticks that I shaped with a craft knife to make into pencil and brush shapes and then coloured with felt tips. The black pen pots are pieces of card glued into a circle and the pens glued into the pots. The playing cards I think were a printable in a magazine. In the background the basket of papers are just colourful bits out of magazine folded into shape.
This intense red study was to focus on my tonal range and to practice the proportions of a face. I really like the intensity of this study but I could have spent some more time on building up the skins texture and the nose is slightly to small.
This is a self portrait I shot on a nikon D70 in RAW. The camera was on a tripod and placed on a timer as there was no one around to shoot i got in front of camera. Shot in Dublin City and processed with CS and Nik suite.
Here again in Greece we are having a bible study in one of the refugee camps. Verses were translated from Swedish to Arabic and English to Farsi. It was amazing being surrounded by so many people who wanted to hear about Jesus.

Three Studies for Portrait of Lucian Freud, 1965
Francis Bacon
Oil paint on canvas
This work shows the artistic dialogue between British painters Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud. While their visual styles differed, both were interested in the human figure and sat for each other on multiple occasions. Bacon painted Freud 14 times from 1964–1971, working from photographs rather than real life. Intimate knowledge of the sitter was also essential. ‘What I want to do is to distort the thing far beyond the appearance, but in the distortion to bring it back to a recording of the appearance’, Bacon said. His portraits powerfully convey the complexities of the human psyche.*
Tensions
While photographers grapple with the mechanics of the camera, painters continue to work with the surface of the canvas and the texture of paint. They often want to explore the material possibilities of the medium as well as the painted image itself. The artists in this room harness the expressive power of painterly materials and techniques. They create layered compositions which privilege abstract sensations over depictions of reality.
In Francis Bacon’s work every brushstroke is emotionally charged. He approaches the act of painting as an assault upon the human form, creating images of a complex and tormented inner self. Similarly, Paula Rego’s painterly technique forcefully expresses the violence of her subject matter.
Breaking down the human figure, Cecily Brown asks questions about how paint can convey the essence of bodies or figures. Can the texture of paint itself transmit the rawness and vibrancy of human flesh? Can painted images, as Bacon, Marwan and George Condo suggest, embody the multiple, fractured facets of the mind? Turning the canvas upside down and upsetting the visual order, Georg Baselitz asks that we look closer, not at the figures but at the painted surface instead. Material, expressive painting such as this resists the precision of the mechanical eye and a world increasingly filled with photographic imagery.*
From the exhibition
Capturing The Moment
(June 2023 – April 2024)
The arrival of photography changed the course of painting forever. In this unique exhibition, we explore the dynamic relationship between the two mediums through some of the most iconic artworks of recent times.
From the expressive paintings of Pablo Picasso and Paula Rego, to striking photographs by Hiroshi Sugimoto and Jeff Wall, you will see how these two distinct mediums have shaped each other over time.
You will also discover how artists have blurred the boundaries between painting and photography, creating new and exciting forms of art, such as Pauline Boty's pop paintings, Andy Warhol’s silkscreen prints, the photorealist works of Gerhard Richter, or Andreas Gursky's large-scale panoramic photographs.
In an open-ended conversation between some of the greatest painters and photographers of the modern era, we explore how the brush and the lens have been used to capture moments in time.
Through a selection of modern and contemporary art, Capturing the Moment explores the relationship between the brush and the lens, and how artists have turned to painting and photography to capture moments in time. Rather than attempt a definitive account of the dialogue between the two media, an open-ended discussion is encouraged through varying depictions of people and place that invite us on a journey through recent art history.

The façade studies take as an underlying assumption that facades are interfaces between building interiors and their environment. As such, facades have to negotiate internal and external conditions while establishing a desired identity.

This is a picture of me, my Señora, and my roommate after she finished making us up as true Sevillanas. We had a blast taking pictures and videos that captured this amazing experience. Living with our family, we really got a great feel for the culture. As part of the homestay, we took all meals with our families, exposing us to real Spanish cooking, and we would also watch Spanish television and movies with them, which improved our Spanish and provided for invaluable bonding experiences.

I love Elgin; depending on the season, time of day, type of light...it never looks like the same place.
The University of Missouri-St. Louis department of music celebrated their All-Steinway School designation last week. The event featured a variety of piano players including, alumni and a current student, plus, soprano Christine Brewer, members of the Arianna String Quartet, solo and duo pianos, and pieces for 5 pianos. In the fall of 2022 Steinway & Sons, makers of world-class pianos for nearly 170 years, gave the University of Missouri-St. Louis department of music the elite designation as an All-Steinway School. All-Steinway Schools exclusively work with Steinway pianos and, by doing so, “demonstrate a full commitment to excellence by providing their students and faculties with the best instruments possible for the study of music,” according to the company. In 2022 UMSL daily feature, Department of Music Chair Joanna Mendoza said that the designation is an incredible honor for UMSL, noting that the university shares this coveted status with only about 230 schools in the world. In addition to signaling the quality of UMSL’s music program, the designation also plays a major role in recruitment and attracting prospective students.

A campaign to encourage 15-17 year olds to study maths. Although the beginning poster does have an air of immaturity...who doesn't like doing silly things now and again...like spelling 'boobies' in a calculator...and the most important thing was to get rid of the seriousness of the subject, making it look fun and exciting.
