RICHARD SWANN ART

A question opticians ask as they put lenses in front of your eyes.  Usually there’s no difference.  Having added tendrils to the onion above to create a more hirsute vegetable I found them a bit annoying, too busy and a different colour to the rest of the picture, so took them off again.  Hours of brow-furrowing and chin-stroking and holding-at-arm’s-length-and-squinting went into that decision.  Likewise the painting below:

Better with enigmatic blue bit at the top or without?  This could take a while.
