Another Faking Friday at lunchtime today with the Cheese and Wine Painting Club over on Facebook. This week we copied a picture by the artist who runs the club, Ed Sumner. He taught us how to paint skies, which is a big deal for me because I hardly ever pick up a paintbrush, not normally my sort of thing. I decided to give it a go as a lockdown project. It’s been fun over the past few weeks, but I wouldn’t like to switch from drawing and printmaking.
Next week’s subject is a painting by the American 20th century artist Jean Michel Basquiat. The sessions are free or a donation by Paypal if you can afford it.

Looking forward to seeing your Basquiat. The last big show we saw before lockdown was Basquiat and Haring in Melbourne. It was a massive show but incredibly annoying you couldn’t get a pass out so had to try and take it in all in one hit. We were like stunned mullets by the time we finished.
His work is so powerful
