WW1 Propaganda Painting


This was a commissioned piece for our local WW1 commemoration. It was one of 10 commissioned pieces by local artists with the theme being; what was happening at home during the war?

Mine depicts the propaganda that was ubiquitous and so important to the war effort in keeping the populace motivated and engaged in the necessary activities. The most prominent was for King and country, hence the centre piece.

The black lines could denote many things from barbed wire to international borders, war plans and much more.

Mixed media and collage on box canvas

Old Paintings Just Found

Hiya,

I just found a CD with my original abstract paintings from 20+ years ago - the original Abstract Girl here is nearly 30 years old and belongs to my sister. I was dissatisfied with it (as usual back then), and gave it to her in what I thought was an unfinished state.

Later I looked at it with new eyes and enjoyed it for the first time - I still do now.
I hope you do.

Stu
