I loved the images you made..<BR/><BR/><BR/>Ok, Arc,<BR/>The Archibald is a prtrait prize worth 35,000$A.<BR/>All the same artists generally paintt each other, themselves and a handful of faces like politicians. being a portrait prize, the work is generally a little predictable, same old same old. So everything gets slagged off(criticised) and the amusing thing is really who paints who. The sitter for this years portrait is my old painting lecturer and she was on the board of trustees for the prize till about 5 minutes ago...hence the topic of many slag-offs...<BR/><BR/>South pacific guitar vibrato..that kinda "hawaiian" ukulele style sound..it flavours the playing in this lip, and permeates their music way-bak when they were called "Mental as Anything"...<BR/><BR/>"Larrikinism" has been desribed as that aspect of the australian character by which all authority is resisted in a cheeky way, flaunting rules and not taking self seriously. A stereotype loved by australian cinema...<BR/><BR/>Reg is very funny though..his persona is unique.fifihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06946945635726214503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-24683880859779574112007-06-08T11:23:00.000+10:002007-06-08T11:23:00.000+10:00no sound. visuals suffice.more than suffice. as ...no sound. <BR/><BR/>visuals suffice.<BR/><BR/>more than suffice. <BR/><BR/>as usual.riseoutofmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14900369522350465257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145558051219626249.post-79435459031703768652007-06-08T06:40:00.000+10:002007-06-08T06:40:00.000+10:00Reading this entry, I feel quite, well, dumb.
