Crazy World
Crazy World
The World became a crazy place in 2025. Recovering from a nasty dose of flu I was reading about Breugel The Elder and his paintings and spotted a tiny flying monkey in the top right hand corner of his painting "The Fall of the Rebel Angels". This triggered my enquiry into creating paintings that reflected what our World was becoming. The tiny flying monkey seemed a good place to start.
