Bit of Damien Hirst...

I extended the last Bank Holiday weekend of the summer and went to see the Damien Hirst exhibition before it finished. I always think of Eryn when I think of DH (not that I think of DH much to be honest!) - but years ago we saw his  Mother & Child (separated) - essentially a cow and her calf, cut in half and in formeldyhyde. Not one for the veges that one...

So there were certainly pieces in this retrospective that he wouldn't have liked! A Thousand Years may have tested his limits somewhat... I loved the butterfly works, and was affected by Black Sun a lot as well - that was a lot of flies...

Great exhibition though - really pleased I made the time to go see it. And not seeing it on a weekend was a bonus as well as it wasn't too busy.

Sorry for not many updates

OK - so now I can type... This is odd. Anyhow - apologies for not many updates recently. There is something odd with Blogger and I can't seem to edit some of my existing entries. VERY annoying! But then it lets me...

Sigh
