KENJI – Thanks for introducing the Victor Hugo painting! Do you have an information on the artist? I did a quick search and it seems his literary work overshadowed his artworks which is quite a shame.
Victor Hugo – Barricade Street
I’m surprised his paintings aren’t better known cos there are lots of excellent ones- well worth people checking out.
whoa Willard Wigan reminds me of Adele’s work in Synechdoche, Newyork !

Now doing a gallery list of USA paintings. So far, avoiding icons that don’t do much for me. This week we’re moving into a new bungalow, #5, overlooking a field with cherry tree, apparently friendly neighbours, a washing machine and room for couple of bookcases, bath and en suite shower – after most of the last 7 years in caravans, luxury!
