Big Frederick looking like he gonna drop the most 🔥 mixtape of all time
TL;DR: Frederick, a fluffy gray tabby Maine Coon with tufted ears and a big white ruff, lounges in a clear bowl on a cat tree, lit by warm golden light and looking sleepily unimpressed. Details: A close-up, low-angle photo of Frederick, a large Maine Coon cat with long gray-and-black tabby fur and a dramatic white chest ruff. He’s perched in a clear, bubble-like plastic bowl attached to a cat tree, so the camera looks up at him from below and his face and fluffy chest fill most of the frame. His tall ears have noticeable tufts, and long white whiskers spread outward from his muzzle. Frederick’s eyes are half-lidded and slightly narrowed, giving him a sleepy, mildly judgmental expression. One front paw stretches forward along the rim of the clear bowl on the right side. The background is warmly lit in amber tones with soft, out-of-focus string lights and part of a round platform of the cat tree in the upper right, creating a cozy indoor glow.

Ellison: This is the essence of dictatorship. It’s the essence of it. And we’ve got to get over the idea that this couldn’t happen here. Not only could it happen here—it’s happening here.

Since we lost our beloved #DavidLynch it often feels like the world and my life are falling apart 😵‍💫
The good news is: This year I will probably and finally have time to read some of the Lynch books that are still waiting on my shelf ❤️‍🩹

Another London sketch dug out of a portfolio, done on a Sunday in 1992 sitting in a doorway on Ludgate Hill looking up to St Paul's. I found another St Paul's drawing where the paper has deteriorated but this one has survived OK.

Time for another one of my old London paintings. I completed this one on a crowded street and the main focus is St Martin-in-the-Fields but I also enjoyed dashing in the passing people with a few pen strokes. This went into an exhibition and sold immediately.

A watercolour drawing of the well-known central London church St-Martin-in-the-Fields, triumphantly designed by Scottish architect James Gibbs. He didn't design the six red telephone boxes though - that was Sir Giles Gilbert Scott who was also responsible for Battersea Power Station.
