1. Almost Vinyl, “That's a Fucking Ugly Baby”—

Painting of a young boy in t-shirt and shorts standing on a doorstep, squinting coolly at the viewer beneath an expansive forehead. Beside him, the lifelike doll of a girl rests against the doorframe, clutching what appears to be a bottle with wires protruding from the top. The door behind them consists of glass panes, behind which a dozen disembodied hands can be seen. At the door’s top, directly above the boy, the moon reflects from a glass pane, dark but for a sliver of light on its bottom s…

Here are my favourites from the National Portrait Gallery's Portrait Award 2025. It's a fantastic selection this year, and free to see as always.
#art #portraits #painting

Mother, by Diego José Aznar Remón Composed in muted tones, with momentary flashes of pink, this portrait of the artist's wife and son shows them on an unkempt bed, the exhausted mother asleep, the baby awake and looking directly at the viewer. It is a moment of gorgeous intimacy.
The Echo - Self-Portrait, by Pippa Hale-Lynch This self-portrait has the quality of a doubly exposed photograph, or one that has slipped and smudged in the process of development. Your eye slides over the detail, unable to lock on. Her face is pale, but with flushed cheeks, against a black background. The painting explores themes of solitude and grief stemming from the loss of her mother.
Ukrainian Girl, by Nelson Hernandez A female figure with her back to the viewer stands at a window, through which shines a wintry light illuminating individual strands of her light blonde hair. Chilean artist Nelson Hernandez's spectral portrait of his Ukrainian friend, Kseniia, captures a brief moment in time: 'I was moved by her stillness as she gazed out the window. Suddenly, the drawing in her hoodie evoked in me a scene of war, a metaphor of her past and the burden she carries.'
Portrait of a Sculptor, by Dide Blasting out bright red, the surface of Dide's portrait of the sculptor Laurence Edwards seems alive with a kinetic, electric energy. The sculpture sits in a brightly patterned armchair, looking directly at the viewer, with legs crossed and grubby boots prominent. It explores 'the messy plaster-splattered existence of artists in their studios'.

I'm amused by this paragraph about changes to #ImACeleb Bushtucker Trials (not that I go out of my way to watch it):
"ITV said all celebrities want a chance to do trials, and viewers don't want to see the same person doing them day after day."
-- if that's the case, why would the viewers keep voting for the same people day after day?

Ilford HP5 (6x6) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photograph showing a construction crane rising above a sharply angled roofline. The roof cuts diagonally across the image from bottom left to top right, creating a dynamic composition. The crane’s arm extends into the grainy sky, which dominates the upper half of the frame. The contrast between the dark roof and bright sky emphasizes architectural geometry and industrial presence. The image feels stark and modern, with a minimalist aesthetic…
Ilford HP5 Plus (6x6) English Alt Text: A grainy black-and-white photo of a city street. In the foreground, a person stands on the sidewalk looking down at a device, possibly a phone. A car speeds past, slightly blurred from motion. Behind the person, mid-rise buildings with Chinese signage suggest commercial activity. Power lines crisscross above, and tree branches frame the top of the image. The scene captures a candid moment of daily life, blending human presence, movement, and urban textur…
Ilford HP5 Plus (6x6) English Alt Text: A monochrome image of a pedestrian overpass in a city. Two people ascend a stairway bordered by metal railings. Above them, a bridge spans the width of the image, connecting walkways. Tree branches with leaves stretch into the frame from the top left, casting shadows. In the background, buildings and urban infrastructure suggest a busy environment. The composition uses strong lines and contrast to guide the viewer’s eye upward, evoking movement and urban…
Ilford HP5 Plus (6x6) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photo of a quiet urban street corner. Three traffic cones sit in the foreground, one tipped over, suggesting recent movement or disruption. A large vertical barrier with diagonal stripes marks a construction or restricted zone on the left. Behind the cones, white metal barricades line the sidewalk. A tree casts soft shadows across the pavement, adding texture. In the background, a multi-story residential building with balconies and wind…

#ShamelesslyStolenFromSomewhereElseOnTheInternetHonestlyICantKeepTrackOfThisStuffAnymore

The image is a black and white meme featuring two men, likely John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, in a humorous conversation. The scene appears to be outdoors, with a background of blurred foliage and what seems to be a building facade on the right. The man on the left is seen from the side, wearing a dark suit and tie. His arms are crossed, and his expression is thoughtful. The man on the right is facing the viewer, also in a suit and tie. He has his arms crossed and is looking towards the v…

Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A monochrome photograph of a tree in an urban environment. The tree’s textured bark and branching limbs dominate the foreground. Behind it stands a modern building with large windows, vertical and horizontal lines, and a glass entrance canopy. The contrast between the organic form of the tree and the structured geometry of the building creates a balanced composition. 中文替代文字： 一张黑白照片，前景是一棵树，树干粗糙有质感，枝干向外伸展。背景是一栋现代建筑，带有大窗户、纵横线条和玻璃门廊。树木的自然形态与建筑的几何结构形成鲜明对比…
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A monochrome photograph of a parking garage entrance ramp. The ramp curves downward into a dark tunnel beneath a building. A white arrow painted on the ground indicates two-way traffic. On the left, a ticket machine is mounted on a column. To the right, a grassy area with a tree casts shadows across the scene, separated from the ramp by a railing. The composition highlights the contrast between light and shadow, guiding the viewer’s eye into the tunne…
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photograph of an outdoor urban scene. In the foreground, a neatly trimmed hedge borders a grassy area. A small sign with a fire hydrant symbol and a downward arrow marks the hydrant’s location beside the grass. The hydrant itself is visible near the sign. Behind this, modern buildings with large windows rise, and a paved walkway runs alongside them. A person is faintly visible near the buildings, adding a sense of scale. The photo em…
Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white cityscape featuring tall modern buildings. The central high-rise has a grid of square windows, creating a repetitive geometric pattern. In the foreground, a pedestrian bridge connects two buildings, adding depth and perspective. Above, textured clouds fill the sky, enhancing the dramatic mood. The low-angle viewpoint emphasizes the towering scale of the architecture. 中文替代文字： 一张黑白城市景观照片，展示高耸的现代建筑。中央的高楼布满方形窗户，形成规则的几何图案。前景是一座连接两栋建筑的人行天…
