Killing Bono – A mini review

by stephen | posted in: Films | 1

Killing BonoKilling Bono (2011)

 

Ya wee fella stops his brother from joining the newly formed school band U2, thinking his own band will be way more successful. Needless to say, they aren’t. Ya wee fella gets more jealous and angry as U2 get more famous… He decides to kill Bono. He doesn’t 🙂

So, after a 15 year break, it was time to revisit my beloved oil paints 💗

This was done using Daler Rowney water based oils. I'd never used water based oils before. I'd also frowned upon them a wee bit, but these were surprising nice to use 🙂

Decided to throw a bit more colour into this and to spend a lot more time planning the collage background.

Another of my Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Week challenges, with this week's lovely sitter Clare Balding. As with all of my others, this is done in ink pen & acrylic, on top of some appropriately found collage pieces...

A must point out that in my intro, I wasn't remotely implying that I'm not a fan of lovely Aine Devine's great artwork 😯 I was trying to say how awesome she was to watch 😃💗😃

On the day I get my rejection email from the Portr On the day I get my rejection email from the Portrait Artist of the Year show 🙄 my pic of the day today is a small selection of my portrait work 😃

As a sensitive, delicate little artist, you kinda have two choices when rejection comes through... Let it get you down or let it motivate you further. Today I'm going with the latter 💗🙂💗 If the Arts Council say no to my recent application in a few weeks I may struggle to be quite so positive...

I didn't want to go to London anyway 🤓

I'll keep it brief 🤓 HRT is still going great. Regular 10 weekly  blood tests have been shifted to every 6 months, as my levels are all grand, which means a lot less needles 😀 Another paid for Gender Care appointment in April, probably via Zoom. As for free NHS treatment... Well, still no initial gender clinic appointment. Over three years I've been waiting so far 🙄 Checked tonight and due to lovely Covid the current NHS gender clinic waiting times have risen to 44 months 😃 You kinda have to laugh, otherwise you'd get stupidly and probably dangerously depressed 💗💗💗

A day with lots of swearing at our temperamental boiler, who we've now renamed Rhymes With (its a Tin Star reference 😄)

A day with a walk in near Baltic conditions 🥶 I seriously hate the cold weather.

A day with a job rejection email 🙄 Oh well, their loss.

A day with a hefty art commission rejection email 🙄 Oh well, saves me some money on paint and petrol to Leicester.

A day being humped by our rather randy dog everytime I even look at him 😵

I've had better days...

A day that will end with wine and some RuPaul 💗🙂💗

Last night was the final Zoom Collage class in my latest course. So for those that are taking a break from this... I hope you all enjoyed the fun creative Weds evening sessions. I love running this course, especially via Zoom and it's been one of the few unexpected delights of this Covid lockdown madness 😀

For those that will be returning for the next block of classes... Enjoy your week off and I'll see you again in a couple of weeks 💗

For those who fancy joining the class... I'll be starting another 6 week block of weekly collage classes on Weds 24th Feb (7.00 until 9.00) via Zoom. £48 for the 6 weeks. I do have a few empty slots, so please contact me or comment if you're keen and need any further info 🙂
