Across The Bay

This stretch of water has a beautiful name, the Sound of Iona. A mile wide channel between the isles of Mull and Iona. Taken with a toy camera this shot has the look of a cheap 70's postcard. Splendid.

As a child, I did not do well with the box of rocks in the geology session of science class. Separated from their environment, neatly docketed in their little spaces, they little held my interest.

But out in the real world where the rocks "lived," I was fascinated by their texture and form, color, placement, shape.

I like to learn about the real world, in the real world.

Politics is a game that hides power. It purports to have "sides" -- A or B, red or blue, good or bad -- so that parasites wield control while followers on each side snipe at one another.

But if we must discuss sides, it should focus on the ridiculously, appallingly rich who grasp, wield, and use power and . . . the rest of us.

You hear the water before you see it, that soft, swishing sound as it falls down the short drop to the pool below.

"What IS that?" you stop and ask yourself, then keep walking until suddenly you see it, this clean cascade of movement, surrounded by lush greenery.

There is a cool mist in the air, as well as a calmness, and you stop to fully experience both.

This week I've been mainly reading, no. 244.

Richard Verdi's new Thames & Hudson World of Art volume on Velázquez (2023), is great on the art, presenting a chronological discussion of most of the painter's works, but much much weaker on the life & organisation of his studio. So, if you want to assess Velázquez oeuvre then this is the book for you, but if you like artists' biographies then give Verdi's well written but tightly focussed volume a miss.

A Long-Lost Landscape Painted by a Teenage J.M.W. Turner Was Found Hiding in Plain Sight

As the art world celebrates Turner’s 250th birthday this year, The Rising Squall offers new insight into the artist’s early years and development.

By Eli Wizevich

#art #painting

J. M. W. Turner’s c.1798–99 self-portrait housed at Tate Britain.

This oil-on-canvas painting depicts Turner at about 23 – 24 years old, in a three-quarter, half-length view.

His face and upper body are brightly illuminated, emerging from a featureless brown background.

Turner portrays himself as a prosperous Georgian gentleman: a dark coat with the collar turned up, layered waistcoats (one silver, one blue), a crisp white shirt, and a tied cravat.

One of the joys when I lived in London, was going to the Tate (only one then) & walking into a gallery where a Turner was displayed — the light! Wonderful! A friend introduced me to Turner, as well as the pleasure of returning to museums over & over & not trying to consume everything all at once. "Museums go to your feet," she would say, if you try to take everything in on one visit.

What a great (re)discovery—

This is my custom portrait of Pearl Grey the cute gray cat! This portrait will eventually become a shiny foiled print, and this particular style helps foil release cleanly from the print.
