Sunset > painting > photo

So I made this lovely photo of my oldest grandson running through a fountain. I made a special enlargement of it by making a painting on the wall behind the photo.Then sunset came by. I absolutely love it.
Charles County and the mules
In 1963 and in 1991 parts of Charles County in Maryland USA, were very poor, I found out recently. In 2020 Joe Biden won with an amazing lead: much bigger than Clinton did in 2016. Most remarkable result: in this county Biden collected less than 9% of his votes on election day. How blue are… Continue reading Charles County and the mules
A Ginger Triceratops

Things you don’t expect on a fruit bowl.
Judicial internationalism
There is something rotten in the Netherlands. In parliament, in government and -in my not so humble opinion even more worrying- in the judicial system. The Dutch version of the text the video refers to can be found here.(It is yet to be translated).
Bob Dylan and that actually lethal thoughtcrime

The complete lyrics of the Dylan song.More about the 25-cent wooden carnival cane in Zantzingers hand and the number of children Mrs. Carroll gave birth to, can be found in… Continue reading Bob Dylan and that actually lethal thoughtcrime

Or should I say… Continue reading The colour of dazzling
Bible reading: the Apex of Misogyny
Deliberately no English versions of the Old Testament were consulted for the literal quotes. I know, and probably you do too, that the differences are of minor importance.
Expressionism? I do want to cry out..
Colourizing old movies: I saw great examples of it before and today I discovered that a fellow Dutchman called Rick is doing a really great job in this field. Here an example of his work: The Attack on Pearl Harbour.This blogpost is about something completely different, yet in a way comparable. I chose this example-link… Continue reading Expressionism?

Rudi Dutschke’s mind blowing success
Political commenting while ironing. No shirt was ruined while making this video. Three years ago I wrote a text about Dutschke in Dutch on the website VerenOfLood.nu. In a note below an explanation of my vote. I repeat the complete note here for a reason: Superficially the hero of many radical world reformers, Rudi Dutschke… Continue reading Rudi Dutschke’s mind blowing success
Childhood memories
In my school days I painted very little, but I did draw.This one is from the time I was considering studying architecture. So I was in secondary school. I must have put hundreds of hours into this drawing. Instead of doing homework, so to speak.My inspiration came from architecture magazines that I borrowed from the… Continue reading Childhood memories
