06.09.09 THE SHOW- BEFORE & AFTER Initially I was experiencing a mixture of excitement and nervousness prior to the opening. On the morning of the exhibition I was a little worried about the clock piece which consists of a 5 […]

AMY- Mixing bowls belching out heaps of savoury snacks, a myriad of multi-coloured drinks; syrupy, cloying cavity catalysts, a fluffy pink mask sails past at eyesight- was that, is that my chum behind there? Speakers blare corny anthems, everyone is […]

I have now received information regarding my acceptance onto the plinth for Antony Gormley’s One And Other. I’ve decided how best to use the time wisely. As well as promoting the Lincoln Artist’s Network, I also need to promote my […]

Dear Patrick I wondered if you would help me with a project I am currently engaged in. Thank you All the very best Annabel x Dear Annabel, Yes…I would love to help. Will it have to be my hair? There […]

I brought out everything I could think of for wallpapering the metal walls. I brought the paste ready-mixed in a bucket as the only water available is from a turbulent River Lune. I have decided to have one room for […]

Its been a while, so without further ado, let the blogging commence… Our arguably insane idea of preparing a gallery space and setting up an entire exhibition (containing the work of 25 artists) in 5 days actually worked. All was […]

My presentation to wip:sthlm artists went well. It was nice that there weren’t too many people – it meant that it could be fairly informal. I was really pleased with the feedback and responses I got.I enjoy talking about my […]

I checked Colin’s Facebook group the other day and membership seems to have levelled out. Although the numbers aren’t spectacular they seem to be good compared to other new groups, so I’ll see what happens. The temptation to promote the […]

I’ve been really busy since getting back from Exeter. DAD has three projects on the go which is great. We are having to streamline our processes! In other words run more effective meetings, introduce the idea of project teams and […]

I have found a Phantom and decided that in the week to come I will go to Bingo. Both these things small in themselves are huge turning points in my life. Only time will tell what will come from them. […]

Somebody once asked Barry John, one of Wales’s greatest rugby players, how he thought of the moves that he made in a game. John’s reply was that he didn’t think, he just did it. The questioner I believe was someone […]

29/08/09 Yesterday was St Mary’s day, which is a significant holiday in Georgia. The Art Villa Garikula founder Karaman, Gogi Okropiridze (a Georgian artist based in Vienna) and ourselves headed out to Rkoni which is about 20km from Garikula but […]

Apologies for going so awol… very good long weekend in Liverpool/Kingsley having a 1950s themed birthday party. No time to finish off all those little jobs while I was home after all.. so am feeling unprepared and a bit muddled […]

The mill is derelict and full of dangers. I had to promise to read risk assessments and safety notices and take proper precautions. I have chosen one of the less derelict rooms, though the windows are boarded up. Co-housing members […]

01/09/09 Monday was time to leave Garikula – after two weeks in total it had started to feel like home but it was time to get back to the city as there were still plenty of artists to see. We […]
