I took this photograph during the Spring of 1976 of my friends Keith (left) and Chris. We were all at the same Secondary Modern school in south London and we all left in the summer of ’76 at the age of sixteen.
In many ways 1976 was a transition year for us. We had grown-up with Slade but by ’76 we had outgrown them. Bowie was still very influential along with Roxy Music, but we didn’t really have music of our own. We couldn’t relate to the middle-class super-groups, the likes of Genesis and Pink Floyd, and music and fashion had become boring and predictable.
We didn’t realise it at the time, but everything was about to change. Punk was just around the corner and it really was a breath of fresh air for us.
It's been over a year since a Wrights 'classic' single decker ran on the 415 service... but a surprise turnup in York is VDL (DAF) SB200 Wright Commander YJ04 HJG running the 415 to Selby, seen at Fawcett Street with Fishergate Bar behind. The last time I saw a Commander on the 415 is here: www.flickr.com/photos/york-bus/20743584613/
As I'm sure we're all aware a stripe is 'a relatively long, narrow band of a different color, appearance, weave, material, or nature from the rest of a surface or thing'. And I'm currently a little obsessed with them. It turns out no canvas is safe now I''ve got my new patented 3 pictures in 1 idea dominating my design thoughts.
It's obviously quite a time consuming system as you have to do the picture twice in order to get the reveal and the mixed up final piece but since when has something as trifling as that put us off? I'm already thinking that this is the idea that catapults us to art superstardom...
She's on a 60 x 40 canvas and I'd imagine you want to get involved right now before they skyrocket in price.
