I bought a painting yesterday, yes I know for some people who know me that Art and Suzy are not usually good bedfellows.  But I know what I like or something pithy like that and it’s my first ever purchase.

I’ve been watching Liam Daly paint live in his studio thanks to his Ustream feed.  Liam has had an exhibition of paintings at the last two blog awards and I love the colours and variations of his work (Birds on a wire being a particular favourite of mine.) Last night I got in quick and picked a beautiful vibrant painting of lambs in a golden field and now the only thing for me to think about is where to put it and cheer up this part of Dublin 1.

Incidentally yesterday Markham Nolan released a video of Liam’s (Eolai) studio combining photos of the studio and words.  It’s a lovely piece of work. Congrats to Liam on his blog award for best specialist blog – Bicyclistic.
