Do we?

It's never stopped Tracey Emmin by the way. (That would be SO uncool to say in the art world ... so I'll say it). I have to hold my hands up and confess that I made a cheap joke about my Big Pixie painting a ceiling on tgfr when he was supposed to have said he'd like to paint. Who knows, he may have another talent. The measure shouldn't always be how good we are at something, but maybe now and again how much pleasure or satisfaction it can bring on a personal level.

Happy to look at his etchings though. LMAO.

That was cheap. And I think I AM having a mid-life crisis ... LMAO.

FG

PS I really prefer him WITH hair ... cheap again. Like I care.

if only this passion was personal

Don't know about Big Yin's painting. However, I personally was impressed by his hand writing, quite neat to me.

Mary, Tracey Emin? Love that bed of hers I think so too, being uncapable of some things shouldn't stop us from doing it if it makes us happy... I know a guy, Dan Keplinger, he had celebral palsy but he never let the disease take over him. He's a full-fledged painter who had an Oscar-winning documentary film featuring himself.

I wonder what Marat's hidden abilities are...

I love the curves of his signature


BTW I saw some Russian porcelain artist, who made a porcelain tiger cub for Marat and other famous people as well. I'm not really sure though, article's Russian... Google translate didn't help so much...

It's the C (si) and the M (mi) that are nesting together that I like. Hmm, something about the nesting part of the sig, I guess..LOL

Thanks for the art event pic Lena-Nova. The cup looks so tiny in his hand.

Thanks Jade, these are just de-lovely and delicious!! ! I loved the bit about Marat leading you without a word to the shrubbery, so you'd have a nicer background for your photo!

I indeed enjoyed this as well! At the time I was so confused why he was still walking but since his arm was around me I didn't mind being confused.

Thanks for the kind words!

Great photos and story Jade! Thanks so much for sharing... I love those serving pics... I miss him (and you all, to be honest ) so much already. Next year is going to be so dulllllllll.....
