WELCOME TO FRIDAY, I would like to show you what an amazing talent Dan is by featuring these two masterpieces. He takes you into a world you may not have entered into or even thought about.

FEATURING: TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS 1 AND 2

ARTIST: Dan Mills
Oil and aerosols
Recycled PVC 125 x 125 cm each

I was working on some other pieces referring to the loss of the commons, when the concept of the tragedy of the commons was explained to me, Wikipedia explains it as ...

The tragedy of the commons is the concept which states that if many people enjoy unfettered access to a finite, valuable resource such as a pasture, they will tend to overuse it and may end up destroying its value altogether. Even if some users exercised voluntary restraint, the other users would merely supplant them, the predictable result being a tragedy for all.

I WOULD LIKE TO BEGIN by brightening your day, this stunning and uplifting art piece is by Linda McFetridge, very inspiring I must say, I could look at it all day.

SHOWCASING - THE SKY'S THE LIMIT
Artist: Linda McFetridge
Acrylic on board with black frame
900mm x 1200mm x 5mm

Endless possibilities can be both inspiring and overwhelming. In the midst of it all, there's power in stillness - taking a moment to truly observe what’s before us can lead to unexpected discoveries.
This work evokes calmness and serenity amidst the relentless pace of life, gently reminding us to pause, be still, and connect with the simple beauty of the world around us.

ON DISPLAY TODAY IS TASHA WATERSON
Tasha can capture the moment, expression, body language, emotion, even the atmosphere in the room with her stunning art pieces. Some are best paired with others to incorporate a special moment in time, others are powerful all on their own. Tasha's artwork speaks volumes, I certainly have my favourites!!
