2107 is gone, it was a crazy year with almost no time for art making, but sometimes being outside your creative process allows you to see things in a different way.

I’ve just come here to my blog and realised I had this half written post:


“Whilst I’m making Platform I’m still thinking about all my other artworks, the old ones and the ones to come. That’s the thing about artists, we never do one thing in a linear way.


I find very interesting how the art world forces us to think about a date, a year for when an art work is complete/finished when in the end we artists are always going back and forwards.”

That was March17 and very pertinent to what I was thinking just now – when are we artists actually making art? When is an art work finished or what is happening when I’m not “making”?

I guess I’m always thinking about time and the lack of it for my art.

I’ve got some plans to sort this out, let’s see if I can make it happen.

I did make some art though, all related to maps – an old passion and very much in tune with my routine – as I travelled a lot in 2017. They are both computer based as I knew I wouldn’t have much time to make things in the studio.

Views From Above
 

and am taking Nautical Perspective  to another level.

But the motto in my head at the moment is: sell more to have more time to do more.

Hope it works.

Otherwise, I’ll think about something else.

Probably, another excuse to keep on going.
