Yes, the for...Hi Margaret, sorry for my tardiness! Yes, the forger is a particular skill set is it not!?!?! I agree that copying is good to test and develop your skills and to gain an insight into how to achieve certain results, but then you have to use those skills with your own voice I think. Our 'own things' often come with a spark for here and hint form there...and yes Rosalie is very wonderful and I never tire of quoting her or looking at her work. Go well.Fiona Dempsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275413906419343228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-48497188213900484382016-09-02T11:51:18.677+10:002016-09-02T11:51:18.677+10:00I agree Mo - she was really unique voice...I agree Mo - she was really unique voice...Fiona Dempsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275413906419343228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-20510431795922251962016-08-28T06:23:35.292+10:002016-08-28T06:23:35.292+10:00I too have no time for copies being presented as o...I too have no time for copies being presented as original work, but there's a case to be made for copying as a way of extending one's own skills and thoughts. Many an "own thing" starts that way, taking its time to develop. I also believe that it's impossible to copy accurately, unless you have the skills of a forger, and that's an entirely different agenda.<br />Meanwhile it's so good to see the work of Rosalie Gascoigne again ... one of my favourite artists. Her idea of "speaking louder" is wonderful.<br />margaret in londonMargaret Cooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08529035740804527176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8070917680632622858.post-3708894577592930662016-08-26T03:39:04.761+10:002016-08-26T03:39:04.761+10:00Rosalie's work has such a strong & powerfu...Rosalie's work has such a strong & powerful presence, she certainly made her own way!Mo Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004208849028911104noreply@blogger.com
