face lamb humour


Posted by Picasa In pursuit of abstraction this is the frame for one of those triangular roadside warning signs for traffic, often ballasted by a sandbag. One difficulty with the abstract is to avoid unintentional circles which could be eyes. These circles are intentional however. There is, and there is intended to be, a fleeting reference in the composition to a human face.

In the oven is a shoulder of South Down lamb slowly cooking and seasoned with the Moroccan blend of spices called harisa. It will stand happily should our visitor be late.

On the bus a woman, apropos of something I can't catch because I am getting off, I hear a woman say to the driver "You can't buy a sense of humour."
