I don't think Sparnaay's work is supposed to be appetising, though it's certainly a feast for the eyes. :)

‘He found a style as a painter that matched who he was as a man’: tributes to Howard Hodgkin.

"The great British painter Sir Howard Hodgkin – abstract artist, portraitist, colourist extraordinaire – died this week at the age of 84. Five admirers remember him."

I prefer the old school ninja turtles. Never cared much for impressionists or modernists or what ever else came out of France in the late 19th early 20th century.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

This is really quite nice.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.
