Ben Nicholson St Ives based artist of great note

Cornwall based artist series ( from top left going clockwise Peter Lanyon, Patrick Heron, John Wells and Karl Weschke )

I have always loved the work of Brian ENO. This is probably my favourite of the 4 solo albums he did almost 5 years ago. Still sounds fresh. Kurt’s Rejoinder. When it was released the record came with 4 Peter Schmidt watercolours ( can’t show you as I framed them and gave to my step daughter ).

Here’s Terry Frost another Cornwall based abstract painter and colourist. His work is very jolly as he must’ve been

This published in 97 - but still an interesting read on early painting, growing up and process of film making. I think meditation was a huge part of his life given that his trust espouses TM. What do people think of meditation as part of a daily habit ( like brushing your teeth )
