This is not proving easy. Trying to add a link to interesting exhibition seen in Malaga but difficult to work out how to do this but the link keeps disappearing when I then try to continue typing!!

Ahhh, have worked it out. Blue link not always shown unless you click on the http address. Lets now try an image...
Ok, can't find the
Otto Dix(German Expressionist) image that I saw yesterday at the exhibition, but this is similar and called
Madame. I really like the range of mark making and use of colour. The latter is subtle but makes big impact on the image. Some red over her bust and orange fiery hair suggesting a woman not to be messed with.
It is quite difficult to find the artists on line that I viewed at the above exhibition. I also really liked a set of prints by
Jose Delgado. They looked like pen and ink drawings but in fact I think they were lithographs. Here is an example of a similar piece of work. There was a lot of movement and simple variations in the marks made, fantastic!
Also, there were some etchings of the
Seven Deadly Sins by Pieter Bruegal et Viejo. Again, I was fascinated by the various simple marks made that produced such intricate images. They are etchings made in 16th century.
Another fascinating image was
Christoph Jamnitzer 'Old Man with Candle and Monsters', 1610. Fantastic patterns which looked like ammonites, formed the basis for the image.
Think the final artist that I will mention is Paul Klee, but will start this as a new entry as plenty to comment on.
