I don’t usually find it hard to write this blog… it spills onto the keyboard as fast and furious as it spills out of my mouth… I talk too much!
But today, I can’t decide what to write about. I feel I need to round up a bit about the exhibition… but I did that on our joint blog, so I’ll point you there instead:
Suffice to say, we want to do it again. The negatives were outweighed by the positives, and lessons were learned.
I also started writing a post about a couple of weekend workshops I just did. They were really good, I did a bit of a talk about my work, and then the students spent the time making a response to my work. That bit was great. It was in an independent school, beautiful architecture, gardens, materials and equipment abundant. But I found what I was writing about was far too overtly snipy and political!
Suffice to say, I couldn’t work in the independent sector, and I couldn’t send my children there either, lessons were learned there too.
What I NEED to write about is the New York COLONIZE project with Scibase… we now have a kickstarter page, complete with video, blurb, images, rewards and a big shiny green button that says “BACK THIS PROJECT”.
So, lovely generous readers, get yourselves over there, make a cup of tea, watch the gorgeous video, in which you catch a short glimpse of my studio wall and me saying a very cheesey “Helllooooo!” Then, get out your cards and pledge a bit of dosh… every little tiny bit is welcome, we are grateful for and will be put to good use… minimum pledge a measley pound, but while you’re there, you might as well make it a fiver…. Or if you are feeling supremely flush… a bit more!
Thank you!
For the rest of this month I am very busy doing teachery things, but when I open the first door of the advent calendar and scoff the choccy, I am starting work on the Army greatcoat. Defo.
