- ... that a key part of the abstract art practice of Alexis Harding is the chemical incompatibility of the different paints he uses? Source: Microchemical Journal: "The core of his painting practice is the 'chemical incompatibility' between different paints". The Observer: "But the two frontrunners - outright winner Alexis Harding (gloopy abstracts) and runner-up Andrew Grassie (very small tempera studies of interiors) - really do stand out."

QPQ is done. Article is new enough, long enough, and within policy. No copyright violation detected, and the article is thoroughly cited to reliable sources. The hook fact is interesting and verified to the cited source, and is an appropriate length. One potential issue, the term "chemical incompatibility" is in quotes in the article. Not sure if this should be done in the hook as well? I'll let the hook promoter decide whether or not the quotation marks should also be in the hook. This isn't a verifiability issue so it shouldn't hold up the hook being promoted. This is good to go. Best.4meter4 (talk) 19:16, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
