Abstract updates
The next five paintings in the 'Squares' section of the Abstract category have been created and linked up.
Yesterday I almost made my first purchase of an artwork for over fifteen years. Cost: One dollar. Plus two dollars postage. And the dollar bills were to be mailed.However the card machine was down at the Aldi checkout so I had to return all the messages except the milk and whatever else the last of my hard cash was enough for.
That last artwork I bought was by a homeless old man who lived on a bus in England. The 900 was a big silver taxi of a thing that shuttled expressly between Birmingham, the airport, and Coventry, twenty four hours a day. With a black marker he had drawn a fantasy land, and then drew a grid on top of it before colouring the resultant squares and shapes with coloured markers. I gave him five quid.
