Spools for the wire. There have been very bad tangles without them. Some of these cut-up cardboard tubes might get incorporated into the structure if they’re reluctant to come loose from the wire. We’ll try them out this weekend and […]

‘I am a sort of citizen of Lala-Land..’ Despite not having much time to write up my blog recently I have kept an interested eye on others and this post in Take me to Mongolia by Birgit Deubner was written […]
Really great to see AIR taking part in the protests on Saturday – really loved the long banner! I was disappointed to miss the march, I had though I would be abroad, but even being in the UK, I am […]
I am not one for technicality, in fact I would describe myself as a novice, although I do like to dabble… Downloading apps is a clever way of making my photography speak another language. Retro-Cam is free and having recently […]
My Fine Art Degree properly got underway at Wimbledon School of Art in September 2008. My journey up to that point charted a combination of part-time diplomas in North East institutions, then onto a Foundation degree in Fine Art Practice […]
Having made a painting of my vinyl collection I started in London by making a series of works based on vintage books, paperbacks, dairies and travel guides that I have collected over the years. Making use of oil & acrylics […]
The emphasis is still very much on making rather than installing and cataloguing but here at last are some images of the drypoints which form one layer of the multimedia installation which will form the show. There are 16 prints: […]

Felt like I did lots of work today. In retrospect this was probaby because everything I needed at any particular point was always at the other end of the house from where I was. Living in a three story house […]
Just noticed that a bar that I have walked past hundreds of times has this painted photograph of men with placards. Were they paid to demonstrate, or was it a set up photo? Not the most progressive sentiment perhaps but […]
The Sporting League Game 21 Pundit ‘X’: ‘Come on man, admit it, the referee was a comedian! There were two goals by Bayerns that shouldn’t have been allowed but you don’t wanna see it – nothing changes eh?’ Pundit ‘Y’: […]
