Rooting through the old filing cabinet and found a folder of various attempts at painting from my youth. Painted on card and looking a bit grubby, (don't use blu-tak) but as it is OK to post faded, out of focus, distant photographs out of historical interest, I thought I may as well show these.
Needless to say, whilst most 20 year olds in NZ would have been hooning around in their old cars, chasing (and probably catching) nubile young maidens, lubricating the tonsils with Lion Red or DB Brown, some of us were somewhat cash strapped and unable to afford such things, so evenings were spent at home with the record player playing jazz, (whilst everyone else had graduated to the Liverpool sound), reading Motorsport and Miniature Auto from cover to cover and painting.
