Upton house and Glenn Brown exhibition

At the weekend I went to the National Trust property Upton house and saw the Glenn Brown exhibition which I actually really liked. Heres some photos from the day :) lots of pretty vintage stuff!




                     
                                       


         

Glenn Brown.








I got told by the guy there that if you look at the painting from the side it is completely flat, yet there's so much depth to the painting itself it really is quite amazing and definitely much better in real life. He was inspired by traditional fine artists which you can tell and interested in the way paint moves. He's playing around with what the great painters did and distorting them, for example the upside down boy he painted which is supposed to be that way round!
