Painting Intervention: “Trouble in Paradise”

Painting is fun, but I’m generally too lazy to paint a whole painting myself. That’s where painting interventions come in: I’ll buy a paint -by-numbers or a cheap reproduction from a thrift store, and add a personal touch in oils. Here’s one I did today, starting with an idyllic scene of a couple running joyfully through a mountain valley. Credit to Dino Massaroni for the original painting (1989).

    Dino Massaroni posted that comment??? Cool.

    Of all the work I’ve seen so far, I want to try this one. Not as fancy, of course. How do you feel about block poetry?

    • Is that poetry in which a bunch of if not most of the words have been blocked out, revealing a new poem from the words left over? I haven’t read much of it but I suppose if done well it could create an effective new poem while revealing some underlying element of the original work
