Ledger Painting Wins Australian Art Contest

A painting of late actor Heath Ledger has won a prestigious Australian art prize. The portrait, titled Heath and painted by Ledger's friend Vincent Fantauzzo, landed the prestigious People's Choice honor at the Archibald Prize art awards on Friday morning. Ledger sat for the painting just weeks before he died of a drugs overdose in January, and the finished artwork sees the actor bare-chested and surrounded by two other whispering versions of himself. Fantuazzo's painting came second in the race for the main award - with a picture by Del Kathryn Barton taking the coveted Archibald Portrait Prize. The artist turned down all offers to buy the picture - which drew record crowds to the exhibition - giving it instead to Ledger's mother Sally, who decided to donate the canvas to the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

Time Capsule (forgive the pun)

I subscribe to the weekly news magazine,Time. Have done so for years, ever since a subscription was given to me as a gift by my then pen-pal in Des Moines, when I was a teenager, in the 1960s.

There's really no excuse why I shouldn't read each week's copy when it arrives. The pace of modern life, however, doesn't necessarily always allow this to happen and I presently have a stack of unread Time magazines on my coffee table.

In an endeavour to reduce the backlog, I was reading the Feb 18 edition over breakfast this morning, when I came across the following poignant reminders of the sad events of last January.

Still battling my way through the pile of unread Time magazines on my coffee table, when I came upon this page in the Feb 25 edition. As well as the beatifically smiling face of Michelle in the snippet about Heath's funeral, Heath also rates a mention in the far-left column, "Talking with Deepak Chopra," who states, "Heath was not a depressive person."

Good morning Heathens

Hey Kerry, thanks for posting these


I'm a bit hesitant to post this Joker pic. I find the whole Joker thingie disturbing. But also - I dunno - intriguing? I'm always looking for Heath under the mask of the Joker.

Bobby Fischer died 5 days before Heath?  How did I miss that?  I can't help but picture that heavenly chess game.....
