    1. Which painting makes you go WOW when you look at it? Or your favourite artist?

    Tsk tsk, I’m not going to pick a painting – I pick The Physical imposibility of death in the living mind – by Damien Hirst (aka the pickled shark) Has been my favourite for years! And he is my favourite artist. If we Muuussttttt pick a painting, then Pieter Claesz

    Pasty Pasty Pasty what are we gonna do with you huh. Mind you Morph and Chas were, and still are sculptural masterpieces haha!!

    Thanks Rockz and Eva I was starting to worry lol. And Lucille lol @ JC Room history!!

    Ok my answers.

    1. Which painting makes you go WOW when you look at it? Or your favourite artist?

    My favourite artist since about 10 yrs old is J M W Turner, his skies and the sheer emotion in his work gives me goose bumps. 2 examples are the Fighting Temeraire and the Fire at the houses of parliament.

    2. A piece of music, classical or modern, which makes emotions well up in your heart, maybe a tear or 2?

    My favourite piece of music ever is Pink Floyd – Comfortably NUmb, particularly performed at Live 8, when the band reformed especially, the solo particularly is awe inspiring, how you get so much feeling from a guitar bewilders and at the same time ignites my emotions.

    3. A classic piece of literature you just cannot put down, maybe reread 100 times?

    Thomas Hardy – Jude the Obscure. Probably the finest book written in the 19th century, maybe of all time. Unbelievably powerful.

    4. What inspires you most, art, literature or music?
    pass

    To me music is the key to world peace, im not kidding you. Music is a truly universal language and is so powerful it can affect everyones hearts and minds. Just think to yourself how a piece of music makes you fel, happy, sad, tearful, angry, etc etc.
    Music is amazing to me and always will be, from opera to the classics to rock and even some dubstep, i love it all !!!
