Old fashioned
Your thin end for today:
This pic here lives on my bedroom wall. For the first 19 years of my life it hung on my Nana's lounge wall. Above the TV and to the right. Or was it the left... anyway
It is an original oil on wood - a turned wooden plate with a beveled frame edge around it.
I think it could be one of my Grandfather's paintings although it doesn't look like any of his other ones. Besides, he always signed his and this has no nuttin on it. I will have to ask Raewyn about it, she might know.
I was thinking last night... yeah, I know, I was supposed to give that up huh. Anyway, last night I was thinking how we are all historians. We are creating and recording and reviewing our lives as we live them. And that makes history a very subjective thing, doesn't it?
I reckon it's kind of cool, though. Desirable diversity and all that.
