Rose Wylie at RA, part 2.
βTo this end, I mean if the excitement is missing, or if the try' at it is frankly dreary, I scrape the paint off and try to make it look like it isn't 'laboured' or 'knowing', and try to show that it's just happened.βοΏΌ

βAs one suggested rule I could add, you should be excited by an image, (original subject), with the hope that the same excitement will come through in the finished painting - I always hope it does, but I can quite see that it may not.β
'Safe As Milk' by Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band, 1967
A debut masterpiece from the one and only Captain Beefheart. Psychedelic, twisted Delta blues meets Wizard of Oz candy-like surrealism meets proto-punk. A perfect entry point into Don Van Vliet's music.
'Ill Times' by GUM & Ambrose Kenny-Smith, 2023
Another gem in the King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard music universe. "III Times" woke me up in the middle of a Modern Psychedelia compilation, and it's such an outburst of nostalgic joy.
π΅ ALBUM WEEKLY
(Not) every week I pick four albums to present to you.
'The Lake / Wrong Flower' by Fever Ray, 2026
A new EP released yesterday!! It's so great to hear Karin Dreijer's voice again - along with pulsing rhythms and that unsettling intimacy, as always.
