It seems apt to restart the blog right now. One million things have happened over the days since I have left posted. In a tumultuous 48 hours, the studios where I and Core Gallery were housed were lost after negotiations […]

Some images from life drawing. Was at The Artist as Citizen talk by ResCen hosted by The Wellcome Trust last week. Artist/performer Graeme Miller suggested that the arts are special when something is created that is a world in itself, […]

My sister wrote to me on Saturday: “I was just reading your latest blog and reflecting on my memories. I thought of two that had profound effect on my life. One was the day we sat together, in a pew, […]

I feel as if I am benefiting from being located in a smaller urban environment, although we still have not moved into our flat (2nd Dec, two weeks and counting…). I started my position as Lecturer in Fine Art at […]

Retreat From Peckham “hello, police? I don’t know if you can help me, someone hasn’t stolen my bike” “Can you tell me exactly what has occurred sir?” “They’ve put another lock on my bike” “They’ve put another lock on your […]

Well, it’s been over a month since I wrote anything here and I feel so bad for ignoring you, blog! I’ve just been too busy. Sorry. Although I’ve known since the start of summer that it was going to get […]

I had a tutorial on Friday with Lisa, a painting tutor who’s never seen my work before. It was really interesting to hear the opinion of someone who’s not afraid to say what they think! It was a bit nerve-wracking […]

Episode 6 of creative conversations is now online at; http://creativedialog.wordpress.com This week I finish my conversation with Alan Rogers, Cultural Coordinator as part of the Weymouth and Portland 2012 Operations Team, at Weymouth Pavilion. We start by talking about how […]

No time for actual artwork tonight at Arena but lots achieved. My meeting with the directors went well, lots discussed and lots of decisions made. My P.V is definitely Friday 2nd December, 6-9, please come along and join me. Also […]

It’s Monday or Non-day for me. Last night, as every Sunday night I listened to Ivor Cutler on BBC Radio 4Extra. Today I watched Marnia Abramovic on Channel Tate and the Gustav Metzer. I tidied the study room and made […]

I’ve spent the last couple of weeks at a loss. Slipped a disc in my back and couldn’t get into the studio to do any work. I was working from home for my day job just fine but couldn’t seem […]

Gosh, its been hard to get online – and we just got lost into Shanghai. I am not sure what Shanghai was about in the end – mostly eating – Nick and Bree brought us to some great restaurants that […]

mmm. we got back from dinner after a big day of cleaning and the power box was beeping. I asked the neighbours, and through sign language I worked out it was an ‘electricity’ card we needed. We find out the […]

There is a little café near us – Moon – and it’s a great little space – there is not much on the menu – some tea and coffee and beer – but its a great little space to hang […]

Oh, what a night. We are back in the apartment – the power is back on. Its cold here – so we had both aircons feeding out heat into our room and pablos room. Then at 3.45 am we get […]

Thanked Jan for his help last night. He seemed fine – he could understand it was a bit scary at the time as we had no idea what was going on – great to know that just a noisy air-conditioner […]

It’s easier to do these recorded conversations with people I do not know & i have decided to not give participants a chance to review my draft edit. I clearly state at the start what i am about and what […]

Having been away for 10 days, and having kept a journal, of sorts, of my experiences, I would like to include some extracts here. But first to put my ‘get-away’ into context: I was offered a residency at *Brisons Veor, […]

15 Nov – Woke later this morning – regretted briefly that I’d missed precious time. The house is so peaceful, the sea slow, flat, gentle, the waves the colour of old green glass. I was awake in the night, thinking […]
