ARTISTS TALKING

# 7 [12 February 2011]

This is my first post of 2011 - how disgraceful it is February!  I have been busy writing proposals and trying to raise funds for a big project which will hopefully end up at the Edinburgh Fringe.  The whole raising money thing is very dispiriting.  I need to get someone to do it for me as it makes me feel so despondent as to pack everything in and get a job at Asda.  Woudn't life be simpler.

Where has all the time gone?  I have a list as long as my arm all to be done by the end of 2010. Just under 27 hours to do it all......

Someone asked me the other day what I was working on now that my Sound Circle project has finished.  I replied that I was resting. 

This is not true. I am in a project limbo - trying to write up proposals, fretting over what to do next.  Doing nothing as Christmas is completely in the way of all of it.  

As my children have finished school this afternoon I suppose this is it for the rest of the year.  Happy Christmas

I am happy show you my new studio space.  I have put up my 'utensil bunting' in celebration- I hope the other current occupants don't take offence.

I have spent the past week making Christmas bunting to sell at our school PFA Christmas Fayre.  Being a bit of a perfectionist it has me all week to make 6 pieces.  Can I charge £100 a string?

I had to rename this blog - surely chocolate is more appealing than religion?!

No work done today as spent entire day delivering leaflets for school Christmas Fayre.  My Art sacrificed for the children (again).

I've just been informed that I have left out the other vital life ingredient from my title - I should now add FOOTBALL. Sorry but this is a sport free zone.
