Keep it, I bet the young uns will like it, mine do!

Mine cost about €35 I think, bought in the Netherlands a couple of years ago. It'll fly in just about any amount of wind, really fun kite.:thumbup1:

 

I tied some tiny cheap led lights to both the tails last summer and kept it flying through the night. Took it down early morning, it really confused the people in the village down the hill:biggrin:

Sad how some people can be so petty.

 

 

David Hockney on the destruction of his 'totem' tree stump: 'It was an act of spite' | Art and design | The Guardian

 

I quite like this study.

Stripped away from its lurid colour, the depiction of an age old scene, generally lost on the public, is comforting.

Have you tried the brush app that Hockney used to create some of his recent work?

 

Its amazing, so many different types of textured paper to use, so many diffent types of pen, pencil, crayon, brush effects etc....

 

My youngest really enjoys using it.

 

Guess the problem is that if you don't like your strokes you can just go and delete them and re do until your happy. Not quite the same as building up layers of mistakes or canvas evolvement, as in a painting of old.

 

Life is all too clean & simple now.

 

Bit like digital photography, in a way.

here's a couple of messages we found at work the other day (hampstead heath), is nice to know that there are folk getting positive stuff from urban tree scapes that some people probably take for granted.

 

also nice that they should choose to share their positive experiences with others ..:thumbup:
