This is a cheat, I finished this a couple of months back and some of you have seen it before (if you have seen it before no need to comment again). At a stretch it fits the theme.....now more than ever it has relevance to some of the disgraceful political events that happened in Australia this week. It is indeed a bloody circus. <<Older Main Newer>>

I think I’ve seen this before, but not sure. I may have commented before, but not sure. Anyway, I think it is fabulous (if I didn’t say that already). You know how I just love the circus - but where are the poodles?

It does remind me of a dreadful kind of night.

Well I know I’ve seen it before and I’ve commented on it but hey you posted it again so I can comment again right? The 2nd time around I think it is rather dark - reminds me of Ray Bradbury’s Something Wicked This Way Comes. It’s definitely not Cirque du Soleil.
And I have a 14x17 pad sitting on my desk right now. Doesn’t mean I’m going to draw anything in it but sitting on the desk is a start.

Politics everywhere seem to be a circus at the moment…
I love the ring master here.

Check out De Chirico (if you haven’t already)
