Tromp d'oeil

This wall painting in Quebec is across the road from a cafe in Sillery, on Avenue Maguire. See map here. As you sit and drink, you see a balcony and next to it a same coloured balcony. But it takes a minute to realise what you're looking at is painted.

I wonder if we could get someone to paint our wall like this, next to our balcony!

Stones of the sky

I see Robin Richmond has an exhibition in London this month, at the Curwen Gallery. The web site here shows some interesting and soulful paintings, of skies. I like them. I wouldn't mind having one, though I don't know which nor where I'd hang it. I just know that these paintings appeal to me.

Robin's speaking on Thursday 18th. It might be fun to listen and Robin is a relative so would be chance to meet up again for a few moments.

Robin has her own web site with video, reviews and collections here.
