Working on a new brocade pattern in which hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades are intricately woven into the foliation meant a glorious time on Pinterest. Some early playing cards I had already collected on a board provided a good starting point from which to dive into those special rabbit-warrens one finds on the internet. I was fascinated by how many creative takes on the basic design popped up, my favourite being the group pictured in the collage above at centre right, which were made by Arnold Schönberg, or Schoenberg - yes, the composer, and one of my favourites. I had no idea he was such an all-round 'Renaissance man'. As well as being a composer he was also a music theorist, teacher, writer, and painter, was deeply superstitious, and had 10 children.

Welcome to my work journal. I usually post here once a week on Sunday, but there are often 'bonus' posts in between of interesting things like growing carrot tops and avocado pits, the odd piece of work I do as Binky, and news items.
Thanks for stopping by! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

As well as the work you see here, I illustrate under the name of Binky McKee (my mother's maiden name was McKee, Binky was every single one of my great grandmother's many cats!)
