@kali66 thanks, I hadn't thought to look him up. He certainly seems to like to use colour. Some of his works remind me a little of Picasso.

Willy Böckl

Whenever you looked forward to anything pleasant you were sure to be more or less disappointed . . . perhaps that is true. But there is a good side to it too. The bad things don't always come up to your expectations either . . . they nearly always turn out ever so much better than you think.

Title - And so can you


That is the American story. People, just like you, following their passions, determined to meet the times on their own terms. They weren't doing it for the money. Their titles weren't fancy. But they changed the course of history and so can you.

Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
