A majestic use of space.
Just stunning.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
Yes... stunning!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is stunning!
ReplyDeleteGod that is good. I love the seamless transition of colours from light orange and purple hues in the water, through green and into blue as one looks higher in the sky. Beautiful work, David!
ReplyDeleteCrikey, that would be amazing to see.
ReplyDeleteThis picture made my day! Thanks and thanks for introducing me to Knowles.
ReplyDeleteStunning! Hell, yes.
ReplyDeleteDavid Knowles is a major painter. That he's not more widely known, while minor talents grab awards and big dollars, is a travesty.

You're correct there. The winner of the Trust Waikato National Contemporary Art Award of 2009 went to an artist whose artwork resembled the contents of an upturned wastepaper rubbish bin.
Is this creation art or trash?
I think that the prize was something like $50,000.00 and whoever judged that bullshit artwork to be the winner must have just been released from a mental hospital who went straight to work as a judge in this competition at the time.
