The man on my painting is sitting at the counter of a classic American diner called Good Ol' Mimi's Roadhouse.

It's a casual place featuring a retro 1950s style with chrome accents, neon lights, and a relaxed 'home-away-from-home' feel.

A diner usually serves classic American comfort food—burgers, fries, breakfast-all-day and shakes—acting as a cultural icon for nostalgia, community and quick, accessible meals.

All the best, Gerard

Raveel shows us what perception is. This is his theme and partly explains why Raveel's subjects are so simple: everyday things, without history, without anecdote. By incorporating reality into his work, Raveel explores the relativity of the experience of reality.

The woman on my painting is enjoying a painting by Yves Klein. His work explored "the void," immateriality, and the infinite, seeking to transcend traditional representation through monochrome paintings, fire paintings and using models as "living brushes" as in this painting.

At the LA Art Show years ago I met a woman who said she enjoyed my paintings. She also said her late husband used to paint too. As it turns out her husband happened to be Yves Klein. It was great meeting her.

All the best, Gerard

This work of 40 x 20 cm shows a woman enjoying a painting by Bridget Riley. Riley is a renowned British painter and a leading figure in the 1960s Op Art (Optical Art) movement, famous for creating abstract geometric paintings.

Her work uses precise, repeating, and often vibrating patterns—like stripes, curves, and dots—to engage the viewer's eye, making static, two-dimensional canvases appear to move, flicker, or shimmer.

Lays Cheddar And Sour Cream- Still Life Painting Of A Bags Of Lays Potato Chips In Supermarket

This still life painting shows different flavors of Lays potato chips in a supermarket. To me potato chips symbolize indulgence, enjoyment and the desire to savor life's pleasures.

But it can also represent a lack of willpower. We all know it's pretty tough to eat just one potato chip and be done with it.

I did a few smaller sized versions of someone enjoying a dots painting by Hirst. I figured I'd try my hand at a larger one as well.

Probably the last one of this size for now as my new space isn't suitable to handle a size like this.

The woman on my painting is enjoying a painting by James McNeill Whistler. It shows the old Battersea bridge in London.

Whistler wanted to capture the mood and feeling of a moonlit scene on the Thames, using musical terms like 'nocturne' to emphasize mood over narrative and a limited palette to create a sense of harmony and stillness.
