We went out to Gunes Terkol’s opening at the organhaus Gallery last night. Before, we dashed into our local little restaurant for a quick bite. Pablo seems to have shifted into comfort mode here – off to see the people […]
Reasons Vs. Excuses Yesterday I completed a painting I’d promised to do for my Dad for Christmas. He wanted me to paint from a photograph of his house in Cyprus. Well, actually he wanted me to paint from two, to […]
We went to a hotpot restaurant down a back lane. She told matt about it – the hotpot is chongqing’s dish and its proudness – its like a fondue burning in the middle of the table – a big soup […]
A bit more about me and my work. I’m two months into my MA at Chelsea and all too aware of how quickly this one year is going. Before this I had been on their PGDiploma course which started in […]
Invigilating at Arena today, three visitors so far! Pam has just said I can stay in my studio space until the next artist moves in, yay, a few more weeks of working there will be great. I’ve been using my […]
Hmmm…. self-absorbed self-indulgent self-obsessed selfish? Recently these terms have been used about me. Occasionally by me, and also by other people. Also “a bit driven”… Yes. I am. But I would qualify this by saying I am absorbed by my […]
Today I made my way incognito to the West End to do some shopping. Some gifts are from places incompatible with MeThenNow. One department store used to be a more pleasurable experience but from the threshold onward I found the […]

The weather is amazing. Blue sky! oh blue sky! I haven’t seen you for so long – it feels so good to have you back. we walked down the street, and it seems to have affected everyone, more shouting, more […]
The jig is up. I have to write a paper. Among other things, it is time to decide what to call “the other“. How does one do that when… A viewer needs something to view and sometimes there is nothing […]
The video and the finished object for ‘stone in a sea of fog’ were united for the first time on Monday of this week. The push was to get photographs of the complete piece so that they could be sent […]
