I went out today early while it was still misty and very frosty. I was aiming to get some photos of the text of one of the stories that have been sent to me. Its a rather poignant story which […]
There is a wonderful sense of calm about things. It feels as though everythng has happened the way that it should have. I think I understand what ‘at peace’ means. John died the way he wanted – quickly, with me […]
Practically this is going to be a webcomic that contains lots of separate mini-stories – each one is a running series. The webcomic acts as the ‘container’ for the stories. A theme/ overall subject/ name is needed. What could it […]
I’ve picked out stories I think I can use:- – the lyrical terrorist – based on real event– IT manager – dark and funny but based on personal experience– the search for an england manager – based on real events […]
I wish people could post comments here – I’d like to get feedback and make this blog more of a community thing. Why can’t we do that here? It’s a standard feature for blogs …
One of the stories – the lyrical terrorist – I’ve already started this to be honest. But I’m thinking of reworking what I’ve done and re-using it as part of this project, so that this is just one of the […]
As we welcome in 2008, we looked back into the a-n archive of editorials to explore contexts preceding and also asked some artists for their new years resolutions for the arts.

It’s true that I am more concerned with ruining someone elses print than what happens to mine. The envelopes are taking on an art form of their own and are telling a tale of their travels. Have received the latest […]
Drawing an Illusion I was quite excited when I stumbled across Susan Collis’s work. She is using Marquetry in her work in a way I had been leaning towards and after my initial reaction of ‘oh that’s a bit annoying […]
John died this morning.
I was talking to an artist on Friday who is collaborating with another professional across the Atlantic. As you can imagine, the costs of meeting are not insignificant. Expecting she had financial support, I enquired who was funding the project. […]
Yet another coat of pale cadmium yellow on image one. [That must make six], and it’s still not quite flat. I think I’m going to have to accept it. If I apply more paint I run the risk of losing luminosity. […]
Exploring the roles and reasons of selected organisations dedicated to widening access to the visual arts through commissioning temporary and permanent interventions in non-gallery spaces in the first of a two-part feature.
I think that a-n has been extremely unfair in the matter of Andrew Bryant. First you print his unbearably smug blog, allowing us to marvel at his crass and derivative musings. Then, of all the letters of protest you must […]
hi this postcard started with Linda Davies and I have added to the bottom corner ( a little tentative I know but I wanted to leave plenty of room for everyone else) caroline x
The Robin’s flown the nest…..managed to escape! I’m sorry I had him for such a long time…….not going to show you what has happened to him…….you’ll have to wait and see when he arrives on your doorstep. He has taken […]
Installation day 5 and work is strating to take some shape now. I am hoping to have most of the pieces hang by tusday and then adjust and join all the work by the end of next week. The work […]
I have been very bogged down in sorting out the printing of invitations for the concluding exhibitions for the residency. As always I wish that just when one needs to get on with finishing off work (ie artwork) one didn’t […]
