What a tale of discovering your passion in an unannounced manner… Less than two years ago four of us sat at Emily’s beautiful country place painting Babushka dolls…Bob I don’t think had picked up a paintbrush since primary school and without being rude, his finished product wasn’t exactly flash… Fast forward to last night and off I went to Sydney Art School where same Bob has been doing an art course and his class had their public exhibition… His work sort of takes your breath way not just because it’s beautiful but also this amazing reflection of him finding a consuming delight in painting from some innocuous activity… it’s like his passion arrived without ceremony and importantly he recognised and embraced it… BTW I was late and roared into the class to find one of the paintings was of me which of course I loved
