influences
My latest poem "if no-one knows" was influenced partly by an email I read and partly by watching an interview with Lance Armstrong after he had completed another stage in the Tour de France - and collected yet another yellow jersey.
On Saturday I went to Art in Action - a huge event that takes place in a beautiful and peaceful corner of Oxfordshire. One of the artists I found was Paul Slater - who does illustrations for the Eating Out column in The Times.
Here's a link to some of his drawings

For me, the one that really caught my eye was "Life on Pluto". This website really doesn't do justice to it - when you see the original (which is at least 3 feet by 2 feet) - the figure of the woman is stunning and amazing - probably one of the most beautiful and sensuous I've ever seen in art. If I'd had the £400 to buy a print, I would have done it. Wow.
