Unfortunately the ability to write blogs is inversely linked with the amount of stuff happening to write about. I believe it is summer, I seem to have spent three months chained to the easel; not earning, not interacting, promoting or organising. I squinted out of the window a couple of times & noticed that the grass was seven feet high, it was raining, it was sunny, the tide went in, the tide went out.
a version of 'Impetuous Horses'
As the Vysotsky exhibitions and openings approach the stress levels rise, the energy levels run low and I look forward with relish to that lovely release one gets after an intense body of work is complete.... not yet though! I still have one painting to finish, i had more in mind but there are limits to what is possible! I also lost a week or so to a nasty cold. fingers crossed that there are no fire call outs in the next few days, I really haven't time or energy for all nighters and dragging hoses across mountains just now!
So news:
