“Muddle and Gabble” (Version 2)
Another new mixed media work on paper.
This work has echos of Turner’s late works and Gerhard Richter’s newer works.
However throughout my career I have often returned to a more nebulous form which to me,
better approaches the spiritual in art.
Look closely and you will see a reference to a Picasso painting.
The title of this work is unusual so I have included the meanings of the words…..
Muddle…. An untidy and disorganized state or collection.
Gabble….. Rapid and indistinct speech or noises

What a way to muddle and gabble. This is one of my all time favorite Robert’s. I use to paint a lot in that sort of muddlish way and wonder why I painted that way. In fact some of my best work used that style. Now I know. Thanks.It is still my favorite way to paint, but haven’t done it in a while. Rlte
Silvia…So pleased you now know. Maybe it’s time to do a few more in that style….since you like it. Also maybe you could post some old works too. Love to see them. Best wishes, Robert
Nicely camouflaged ‘Demoiselles d’Avignon’ there Robert. I really am tunered on by this painting – it’s also my favorite way to go although I’ve been exploring other paths recently – handsome work my friend, you should be proud…
Knew you would see the Demoiselles John. Now if this work turns you on….and is Rite’s (previous comment) favorite way to paint….I better explore it some more…… so get ready.
I’m all eyes…
