I was thinking back to my art school days of the early sixties
I was among some weirdly dresssed people then ,,so these youngsters
today //goffs are they called? ,you may be able to correct me on that one . they are doing nothing new
yes I was among that lot ,, who painted the murals
on the bill boards ,great big feet and hands they had and usualy the heads were side ways on //,tramps ,and coal miners were popular ,loved those pit helmets with light on top ..and always outlined with a half inch line ..who was that sculptor who started the big feet craze at that time was it henry moore ,,we always painted them with the big toe sticking up ..was a statue
of samson popular at that time .I know it wasn't Tony Hancock who started it ,
