Really sad to hear just how tough last year was, Marie. Both your huge talents and shared worthy endeavours deserve the best of New Years, lovely pals 😘

2024 has been one of the hardest years of my life. Having said that, there's been a lot of great stuff too and I wouldn't have got through without The Man - we had lots of adventures. Going into 2025 with a lot of hope. Here are some of my fav photos from this year.

Morning Mr @grimartgroup.bsky.social I hear I made the Grim List again on the other place, and that you're bigging up Tim and his Mum's exhibition in Cleethorpes next year. Many thanks fella, good man that you are. Have a piece of Spitalfields.

The angled warping & shifting perspective of the building shapes are quite reminiscent of some of the style associated w/ German Expressionism of the 1920s & 30s.

These are original set design illustrations for the classic 1920 silent film, "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari".

You’ll probably have encountered J.F’s more well know work featuring sheep in stunning twilights …but must admit, rather like this more impressionistic work 😍 …

And here's a pen and ink drawing by L. S. Lowry which @grimartgroup.bsky.social may be interested in.

Mill at Farnworth (1921)
This small sketch is from a collection that contains
three other drawings by the artist.
