You Beaut / Before Pop


Such a lovely morning in the big city.

Went to see the Andy Warhol and John Olsen Exhibitions at the Art Gallery of NSW:


Loved this commissioned Christmas Card Andy made for Tiffany & Co in the 1950s:




As a Gemini, I had to take a sneaky snap of this. Hits the mark quite closely...

 



....and was reminded of the big world that exists when I venture out of the 'hood.


While the daily goings tickled my fancy, I couldn't help but reminisce...

Remembering the days working at Chifley Tower while the Sydney Olympics were on,  watching and celebrating in the Domain. Such fun times.




Was just a tad crunchy under foot in places...




Ventured out wearing a new purchase from Emily Green. On leather twine are these polymer clay beads in all my favourite shades. And with sparkles! 9 x bead necklaces are Emily's signature design although she creates pieces with up to 18 beads as well as earrings, art works and even has a sock range!



Don't these works celebrating our wonderful country put a spring in your step on a sunny day? 
  







John Olsen certainly captures the essence of Oz.  He is still painting and going strong at 89! 

Inspirational.
