My music memories are well and truly in the 80s and hence the title of this post - remember Billy Joel anyone? Smile.
The past few days have been well and truly spent in preparations for the Open Studio on Friday evening and Saturday - lots of cleaning, tidying, washing, removing of cobwebs etc etc so the studio shed should veritably sparkle! Hence not a real art-focus blog post today.
Nonetheless I think these are beautifully artistic images. A few weeks back Barry and I had to go to a warehouse to collect some new furniture for our guest area. Whilst waiting, waiting, waiting at the loading dock these marks caught my eye.
They are literally the tyre marks from all the big trucks that reverse into the dock to collect items to transport them hither and yon.
I loved what they did to the white wall! So a different type of white wall tyre thing going on, but a pretty gorgeous one I thought.
They almost look like wonderful watercolour paintings don't they?

They do! I want to get a lead pencil and write all over them ...
ReplyDeleteMe too G - maybe I should send you some hi res photos and you could print them and.....fun!
DeleteAmazing!
ReplyDeleteStunning aren't they J?
DeleteRemember Billy Joel? I'm claiming him as a hometown hero since we grew up ten miles apart in the suburbs of Long Island (okay, he was more than a few years ahead of me, but his songs were the accompaniment to many a life event in my teens and twenties).
ReplyDeleteAs for the tyred white walls ... thank you for sharing!
That's very cool Liz! The walls were great and it was funny how the lyric came to mind to describe them. Go well.
Deletean interesting exercise in observing random order
ReplyDeleteIt is isn't it Mo - far more random than a bar code I think!
Deleteoooo I love this!
ReplyDeleteMe too Ronnie!
DeleteLooks so much like some charcoal mark-making.
ReplyDeleteSo true Jo - just the side of the charcoal dragged down the paper...
