TAKE A WORD - SEPIA


Our word for inspiration at Take a Word this week is SEPIA and that reminded me of the very talented Miss Beatrice Bunter who had a passion for paint ... I only knew of Miss Beatrice by word of mouth of course .... I am not that old!

Miss Beatrice?  Well, you must draw your own conclusions!

    I think I knew her nephew Billy Bunter, star of Boys' Own Annuals!! As for Ms Bunter, the droop of her eyelids perhaps explains the "therapeutic" aids she may have used to embark on her artistic journey!! A fantastic piece of surreal humour. As I have said before "don't know how your mind works - just glad that it does".

    I love your wicked sense of humour Ann! She has a very busy head, doesn't she? And the lady pretending to paint the couple, whilst ogling the nude on the stairs... well!! Love it!!

    Your sense of quirk never ceases to amaze me, Ann. This is such an intriguing surreal piece, with all its quirky details. (I guess the guy on the stairs is rushing up to his room to get dressed?!)
