clowns


I really like clowns, the make-up and expressions - so many ways to draw a funny face, sad clowns, happy clowns, those overly large shoes, funny walks, they come with umbrellas and flowers and handkerchiefs. I'm not sure what there isn't to like, but perhaps they are a little like Marmite - you either love them or hate them. If you love them like me, you should pop over to the Gentle Author's blog Spitalfields Life. He posted some utterly stunning shots today by John Claridge - portraits of clowns at this years Grimaldi Clown Service.
