Jumping on the bandwagon?
Kate Kretz's painting has generated so much interest on the internet that I thought I'll also join in the feeding frenzy. Well, it's unlikely that I'd have any influence on the worth; the painting is actually on sale for US$50,000. At least I can give you a pretty interesting picture to look at. What do you think?
On her blog, Kretz, 43, said the painting addresses "the celebrity worship cycle." She said she chose Jolie for the subject "because of her unavoidable presence in the media, the worldwide anticipation of her child, her 'unattainable' beauty and the good that she is doing in the world through her example, which adds another layer to the already complicated questions surrounding her status."
Remember me wondering about how long Koshy's has been around. Well, this morning, I found this banner flapping about outside the premises. It looked like it must have left there since Christmas. "67 glorious years". Could that be it?
Sari and I found this in a framing shop. Framed, they were selling it for Rs.300. Would have bought it for the sheer novelty. Then what'd I do with it? But I just loved the way the picture shouted out at you. I may still go back to the shop to pick it up. Well, if anyone's interested, let me know. I promise to charge only a small commission.
