A most unusual mark... 👍 Poet Roger McGough leaving his DNA signature on our painting 'Said the Skeleton' in the form of a thumbprint in the still wet resin. It may seem strange but it is in a time honoured tradition... if you ever visit one of my favourite rooms in the world 'The Great Gallery' In the Wallace Collection in Manchester Square in London, there is a painting by Poussin "A Dance to the Music of Time". 🎨 It was painted between about 1634 and 1636 as a commission for Giulio Rospigliosi (later Pope Clement IX), who according to Gian Pietro Bellori dictated its detailed iconography. If you look a little more closely at it in the flesh you will see that it's surface is entirely covered in thumb prints! It is the one element in Poussin's painting that has left art historians particularly baffled. Early on, it was noted that there were some curious fingerprints covering the surface of the painting. It was assumed that these thumbprints were in the thick layer of varnish that covered the painting, and that once the picture was cleaned they would go away. After the painting's cleaning in the 1980s, however, the thumbprints were even clearer than before: it was finally determined that the thumbprints were pressed into the ground of the painting while it was still wet, creating a strange texture all over the painting surface. Because Poussin was notorious for desiring total artistic control and hardly required the help of assistants, it is generally assumed that the print was Poussin's own. Hope you enjoyed this story and don't forget to leave a bid on Roger and I's painting for 2 great causes.

Flanking Gormley at @redhousegallery #harrogate #gallery #colours My #jouissancefurr diamond dust pieces.. Verdant Green, Rose Pink & Souffre Yellow. The yellow colour was inspired by a piece of Sulphur I saw in Boulogne sur Mer, France. The green I imagined because I wanted it to be 'unearthly'. Nature sometimes has answers and sometimes the answers come from within...
