ArtworkImage Collections:Story:This page contains a few of the nicer pieces of artwork I've drawn during my life. My friend Jonathan Bekkers has his own website full of his own great art pieces and other sites [Big Jon's site], and I decided it was a pretty cool idea to do something similar. I've liked art and liked drawing for as long as I can remember. My grandfather,
Bruce Barclay ("Poppie" as we called him), was a fantastic painter,
and I'll always remember him as the nicest and most gentle man who ever
lived. Not only that, but he was a very patient man; something lacking
in most people these days; a real model. I often remember him falling
asleep on our balcony a lot when we lived in Darwin, when he was up visiting
us, but he never admitted he was asleep, he always used to tell us he
was just resting his eyes, and could always hear everything around him.
Poppie passed much of his artistic talent onto my mother, and hopefully
she passed a little bit onto me, but I suspect it gets a little bit worse
every generation. Had I taken art as a subject in high school I guess I'd be much better,
but a hobby is something you do for fun; it doesn't matter how good you
are so long as you enjoy it. Instead of art I opted to do subjects like
computers, maths and english - all those useless subjects you'd never
use in your life. Maybe I should have done art. |
