Art, George Large,

 

 

For the second time in as many days I start looking for one thing and end up finding another.
I was looking for paintings of watering cans, odd I know but I’ve just bought my granddaughter a ¾ size galvanized steel watering can for her birthday because she has her own green house. (obviously despite the copious amount of rain falling, she still needs a watering can)
Anyway……………I digress……………..in my search for still life which included watering cans I came across this chap. His name is George Large, wow that’s weird because my maiden name was Large, George is a family name and  he comes from roughly the same area as I do. I suspect this will turn out to be a coincidence but I’ll investigate all the same.
On to his art………….I like it, not the sort of thing I usually go for but this time, I really like it. It reminds me of the industrial paintings of Stanly Spencer, another artist from around the same area area.

Paintings and info from his web site.

I did find a couple of paintings with watering cans but his was the nicest and then i just decided to show all of his paintings and not bother with my collection of watering cans.
