Golden Boy

Homage to Patrick Scott who died 7 years ago today.

Please google his artwork Golden Boy and this is my take on that piece of work (although I have gone all funky)

You can hear his story on today’s Sunday Miscellany -please also listen to the Marc Chagall Hero story - it’s very heartwarming - in fact you could do worse than listen to the whole hour - I love it

So Patrick m’dear, I know you went all gold filigree etc etc.. but I went out to the log shed, chose a bit of timber, halved an orange and frilled up the other half, decked it with gold hearts (cos you passed on St. Val’s Day), snuk in a capallmara and unfurled a snake.

I mean this is modern art darling

***

I have written the third draft of short story which will be published soon, done some more icelandic painting and have listened to some music. Plus I have paid homage to Patrick. A nice weekend so far.

And don’t you just love all the fudgy smudgy romance of today

Happy Saint Valentine’s Day everybody

And enjoy these great voices
