Away from Cameron

Jewellery or Perfume or something

It was probably Liz Taylor

This is Ron
A small group of recent images, a bit patchy and disparate. All were originally newspaper photos except the second from top .

In the second one the fusion between the gold paper and the distressed image seems to have worked out well. There is enough evidence to see that it is one sheet of paper resting on top of another and there are also enough folds and lines to give the illusion of an integrated whole. Not bad for a tatty old bit of paper taped onto some old Christmas wrapping paper.

The above image is of R.B Kitaj, a painter of considerable strength , complexity and valour.

Above him is a small note about Liz Taylor, but it could have been anyone really. I was more interested in the reflected image picked out on the support.

At the top lies Cameron the P.M , I have not really tested this image to destruction yet , he looks too genteel, too pleasant, like someone in a Miss Marple made for t.v mystery. So as an image I think it is a failure,  or at the very least , in its first state.
