They remind me of the thirties paintings I've seen in Spain and Italy.

They're good. They're ugly. They make you feel weird.

I think they are pretty terrible...kinda flea market style in my humble opinion.

I love Peter Howson, he's fab. I like the fact that he feels he can paint something like this of someone so famous and be confident of a positive reaction. I might even make the trek down to Ayr to see them, at some point.

ingrediants on getting your picture in the public eye:

1 take a celebrity 2 paint him/her really badly

hey presto - the world knows your name

I live in fear of seeing the sketch of Madonna with the severed head.
