a record of otherwise ordinary things in Gibraltar seen through the eyes of a newcomer; of things she finds beautiful; of things she appreciates..all because a Gibraltarian stole her heart

there's art and then there's also bad art
found myself at the Gibraltar Art Gallery last saturday and saw the latest of what art in Gibraltar can offer. there were hits and misses of course but judge for yourself. the painting below might impress some people or offend a lot. i think it would probably have made a much more thought-provoking impact if the monkey himself was holding the gun to his head. whatchathink?a headless pole-dancing blow-up doll (or some such)? bad art, i say... this could've been executed "properly" (no offence to the tuxedoed monkey)love the colors, but it lacks oomphone thing i like about this one is i want to get a hold of the typepress lettters myself!this is such a safe and timid painting that it doesnt push the boundaries for me
