For a week I have been mainly horizontal on a diet of paracetamol and hot 7Up, but now I’m back ready to take on 2011.
A few things to work on first – my library books which are due back in England – I’m still in Donegal, I have no source of income and my fees are due as well as the rent for my studio and I haven’t really tackled this study plan for my MA as yet.
Before I left I was working on ideas about the Von Bochs and what they symbolise but I have a feeling that could just be another sideline project. I like sideline projects though- you never know when they will come in handy. Louise Atkinson is curating a show in Leeds for the book fair so I think I might allow myself to get sidetracked by that also.
This paper stuff I’ve been doing with the plans – that stuff I need to get into shape and by end of Feb. I’m hoping to run some workshops at my studio so I’ll need to research those. Also Jonathan is talking about running a gallery space so I will did out those contacts from Duncan Kerr and see if anyone can shed any light on the situation.
As for the MA, finish this sketch book I’m on and move on. The time of gathering and pondering is closing in and I feel I must begin to plant seed for growth in the spring.
