The Easter holidays are drawing to a close and I’m trying to squeeze some more work into the last few days now I’m back in Falmouth… it’s proving difficult as I’m veering between laziness and lack of confidence! It’s amazing […]
This week has seen a lot of work put in at Leamington Spa Art Gallery and Museum… hence not so much making time has been spent… been up to a few things though! A-(Discussion)-Board is almost done, just needs one […]
My first video! I think that deserves a mid-week post, eh? The slide/powerpoint presentations on our work are to be delivered on Monday, and I finally finished it this morning. Although I don’t mind speaking extemporaneously, and do encourage questions […]
I’ve taken a small break from the blogging scene to finish off my dissertation but now I am back and have a few short posts that I’ve been saving up over the holidays. Firstly I went to Berlin for a […]
Frustations of a Friday end of the day…. I have been waiting for my 2000m nylon cord for a week, and when it finally arrives it is the wrong size…. I call up and they say…”it is the same size […]
Post #2 for today! I have a Blogger Profile now up: www.a-n.co.uk/p/2086261/ I’ve been answering all sorts of questions about printmaking, teaching and what I think I’m going to do after uni…scary stuff! This is the 3rd interview I’ve done […]
#6 It is Friday evening and I am in the space on Bebington Road. The high street is closed mostly and everything is quietish in the evening’s remaining glow. I have just finished the prep for my workshop this Sunday […]
I have been going through some bits of donated paper recently and came across this little gem – it must be from some kind of Health an Safety Ledger from the 90’s. The last entry is a treat..!
As it is still the Easter Holidays I have not managed to do any cerebral work for quite some time. Aside from a few sneaky sketchbook notes I haven’t had a moment of spare brain space to think about my […]
Graz – Day Two In between looking for sounds in the streets of Graz I have decided to have a closer look at Kunsthaus Graz; an extraordinary building designed by London architects Peter Cook and Colin Fournier, standing on the […]
I realise I’ve been rather vacant the past few months….everything is happening so quickly! We’re now into the last 5 weeks of studio time (very scary!!) and everything is revolving around exhibition prep! I’ll try not to forget about sharing […]
It’s two days later and my head has almost stopped spinning. I am pleased to report that the preview was a huge success. The gallery was absolutely packed, and feedback was cheek-reddeningly good. Although I was personally happy with the […]
Open studio: “Is that vomit?” asked the girl from the studio upstairs. “No it’s an action sculpture,” I said, “It just happens to look like vomit.” This was my first open studio since I moved in. I had really cleaned […]
It is strange how creative work is feast or famine. Over the winter it seemed as if I was not really doing much at all, now a lot of seeds have started to spring forth. As Morrissey said “Life tends […]
I’ve been testing out the glut of equipment I bought before the end of the financial year, including a short-throw projector for my Harmony performances. I’m impressed with how large an image you can get from a short distance, which […]
anyway, Having nagged and cajoled my 16 yr old son into constructing a detailed, yet realistically achievable revision timetable, I felt it was ridiculous that I just wasn’t doing any reading. I’d got really good at ordering them from Amazon, […]
Responding to some of the comments made in the blog survey: >>Do you think that artists use blogs primarily as publicity and marketing? I don’t think we have any view as to how artists want to make use of the […]
Over the last few weeks I have been rushing around trying to sort out some changes to my degree show proposals. After some ideas sparked from another seminar I presented, I realised I wanted to take the viewing experience of […]
writings on a wall in Rome.. it’s interesting how graffiti in another country seems exotic.. I was reminded of some photographs I’d seen a few years ago by William Eggleston of Egyptian graffiti, the words on the rocks along parts […]
Photograph taken from the train window, a very flat part of northern Italy.. much grape growing occurs in this sunny region..!!
Sporting league: Results Game 6 Pointeso continued their process in the art of myth creation with a sixth successive which kept them two points clear of nearest rivals Bayerns and Tranquilayers. Sporting Radio Pundit P: ‘We seem to be getting […]
So why haven’t I blogged recently? I’ve been too busy swamped in the making and the doing that always becomes so intensive at this time of year. Testing my (and my boyfriend’s) limits, I’ve been splattering myself in paint, inhaling […]
