Old, faded and cracking up

 


      It comes to all of us and everything eventually caused by the passage of time. Lucie and I were walking round some old pig styes a few days ago and there was a huge pile of domestic fencing waiting for a dry day or two and a meeting with a box of matches. Mind you with the weather we've been enjoying it'll be a week or two before it is dry enough to burn, it's more likely to float away.


      Like all weathered natural materials the faded colours and patination have a charm and beauty of their own. I may have to snap a few larger pieces off and see if I can print from them in some way. Should be interesting!

      Meanwhile for those connoisseurs of Norfolk Bog Door Blue here's two absolute crackers for you to enjoy!
