Portrait of a Potato

rambling ratz

I was inspired by Kevin Abosch’s photograph, Potato #345, which has been bought for over one million dollars.

I think my potato has more character; note how the eyes follow you around the room. Although I do need to work on my lighting. Therefore, I shall accept fifty quid for it. The financial value of any artwork is basically whatever someone is prepared to pay for it. The artistic value is down to personal opinion.

After a day grazing in the supermarket, the trollies are herded together and locked safely in their corral for the night.

Autumn and winter are often the best times of the year to see great sunrises and sunsets. The sun is at a lower angle and its rays take longer to pass through the atmosphere, so more of the blue/violet light is scattered allowing us to view more of the reds and pinks. Clouds will help to reflect this red light causing the environment to glow. I’m sure that you have all heard the saying; « Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight. Red sky in the morning, shepherd’s warning. » In the UK our weather systems generally come from the west, a red sunrise suggests that…
