Womblegrinch's Box of Inspiration

@womblegrinch

On Saturdays I have a bookstall in Hackney, London, where I sell art auction catalogues. I have thousands and, therefore, hundreds of thousands of images of artworks that are often only found in the catalogues. I plan to share some of them to introduce you to art and artists that you may not be familiar with. Don't forget to look in the archive - there are over 3000 paintings to peruse. P.S. the books are only £1.00 each or less. Come on down to Netil Market, I'm there to be exploited - but, alas, not at the moment while the market is closed!

I will be back

After ten years I needed a break, and I received some news from home that, to my shame, I haven't addressed. Seven months and I still don't know how. Seven months. I found out my dad died two years ago and I still haven't made contact. I am the worst. Twelve thousand miles and only a phone call away. My family didn't deserve for me to disappear with no explanation. I just haven't done anything with my life to merit updating them. Not in thirty eight years. I'll never be forgiven. There are three thousand artworks in the archive. Make do.

Do not comment. Do not repost.
