Gin 498 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) A friend of mine visited a girl a few weeks ago and noticed she was doing a painting of a tiger, and asked if she did any others. Only as a hobby said Wendy. Not trained but uses different mediums to draw with,- oils, acrilics, pencil, water etc. I asked Wendy to make a few flyers (posters) and put some of her stuff in our Countryside marquee at some of the shows.. Amazing talent. Some from photos The mobile number on her poster has a 6 missing off the end. Edited July 31, 2010 by Gin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bolio 49 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 The art world is crazy. Here is someone with real talent and yet other people get vast adulation and awards for things like a wrecked bed or a tent with the names of past lovers scrawled on it. There's another guy called Andrew Ellis, I think, who does unbelievable paintings on the theme of falconry. Brings the birds right out of the canvas at you. Yet the fame goes to the trendies.

Gin 498 Posted July 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Yes she will do. She seems lacking in confidence over her ability, but its real talent she has got. I took the photos with my mobile phone but they are actually much better than the photos i took. Another of her works for our marquee Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I couldn't agree more. The likes of Tracey Emin and Damien Hirst are just a modern day version of the emperors new clothes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
