Ahh - the curious case of missing threads has reared it's head again.......

Thanks for bumping - missed it first time round.

Lovely images, full of fluidity and life. They reminded me of pictures I couldn't put my finger on - then I got it. Matisse - in particular Jazz 1947 Cut Paper.
What's the betting Matisse had been influenced by some of the beautiful Gwion Art through Bradshaw's discoveries.

I'm bumping this for the art. Early Australian art. It's lovely.

Fascinating article by Jo Nova in which she highlights two other articles that talk about how past climate change is thought to have affected humanity. The 'Kimberley' aboriginal art is wonderful.
