Sometimes, blogging can be very frustrating, because you are unable to talk about things as they happen, when you are feeling them most sharply.
But, when the dust settles, you then see things more clearly!
I have this morning resigned from my job in school. Those of you that know me, or have read this blog for a while, will know how much I loved the job, and also how grief-stricken I was when it all changed.
I feel the need to trot out cliches…
Things happen for a reason…
As one door closes another one opens…
There’s more to life than money…
The world is my oyster…
There are more no doubt…
But… if I hadn’t been unhappy, and started very noisily telling people I was unhappy, and looking for something else, I would not be where I am now!
I will soon be working with the education team at New Art Gallery Walsall… (and other places too I expect) My favourite local gallery… actually probably just my favourite gallery, for so many reasons, some of which I must have written here.
I will still be in my studio at ArtSpace Dudley, and doing workshops there too.
I was unhappy.
Now I’m happy.
(I have a raging throat infection, a sore knee and jet lag, but very happy)
