I popped inot the studio today to pick up work and it was a great chance to see Dan’s work without people around, especially after he had given a detailed account of his thought process. The show charts his journey […]
It’s going to be busy at Harrington Mills in a couple of weeks time. There are a few furniture manufacturers in the complex and they will be show-casing their collections. http://www.longeatonguild.co.uk/Visitor-Information-2 The equivalent of our open studios…
Its been a while since I’ve posted, however thats because I’ve so focused on sorting on whats going into the final show. I’ve been working on paintings that explore visual deficit and how deficit is beautiful. Over the last month […]
Yesterday we got some way through the catalogue, it is still not finished but it’s looking pretty damn good. I got to the studios at 8 last night and I had no energy what so ever. I just about managed […]
Our brochure for Forth Valley Open Studios with over 100 artists and more than 70 venues is now at the printers. Phew!. …what a relief! Now we are starting on the media campaign. Today sees a full page centre spread […]
Planning ahead… Gathering info for the next exhibition by Justine, an HMS resident.Sent reminders for the Dan Roach PV/discussion taking place this sunday @ 2pm. http://www.harringtonmillstudios.co.uk/exhibiton_space/roach/invite.htm I am in the middle of reviewing ‘At Play II’, South Hill Park, Bracknell […]
Pietrasanta’s at last getting warmer – and opening up like a flower… And with the warm sunny weather its is filling up, foreign artists are arriving, and the ones that are here all year, seem to have come out of […]
People are finally filtering back into the studios…I’m not alone anymore! I cut down my suspended paper and cut it to book size ready to be bound. They will consist of 10 pages each with varying amounts of “text”. Some […]
Had a nice conversation with Glyn from Millgate museum. The exhibition organiser has had his hours cut to 4hrs a week – just about enough time to boot up a computer and say hello! Anyway, we’ve managed to sort a […]
Just had confirmation that Beth Shapeero from Backlit in Nottingham will be joining the panel at HMS to discuss current abstract painting. Yeh! This will be the second in a series of debates. She will join Marek Tobolewski (who has […]
I haven’t been making over the last two weeks. I was determined to get in the studios and force myself to work, but it didn’t happen. I don’t think that ever happens, you just have to think in those times, […]
Event 10 Blast Theory weekender Artsadmin, Toynbee Studios, London 27-28.03.10 This was a brilliant way to finish my R&D project because it gave me a chance to put into practice some of the themes I have been working on over […]
The last supper It’s our final weekend in South Africa and we are hosting an event at Malmesbury Museum: the old Jewish Synagogue where our family used to worship. We spend Saturday evening preparing borscht and black bread for the […]
8th April 2010 Its not two months since the fire and it seems we may have found a long term replacement building – a mill just outside Kendal. Its been so busy these last couple of weeks – meetings and […]
Loads of artists live here in Wivenhoe. I walk the dog along the estuary most days, often with an artist friend, and generally bump into another one or two. One friend maintains that ‘when artists get together, all they talk […]
I haven’t managed to spend much time in the studios and I feel lost because of it. Going home for a week was probably not the most sensible idea, but I am going to spend the rest of this week […]
Shows and open studios It has been a fair while since I have written an entry, so it is with relief that I can finally hit ‘post’. Life has been busy, productive and, with autumn on its way, a little […]
One bad week followed by one great week. That’s the way it wants to be, but luckily enough that’s how it’s been. Thanks for the comments David, Carolyn. Carolyn, Photoshop has been an invaluable slave, assisting me in planning and […]
Looking at the past serves to inform the future. Points of reflection come when things change providing frames of reference. The divisions, layers, cracks, joints and lines are symbols of change, ‘landmarks’ for evolution. We need those boundaries and boarders, […]
The weeks are passing so quickly. It feels very late to mention the snow sculpture workshop again but I just want to say that the two days out on the field were great. The weather was perfect – cold and […]
This is from a very over-exposed photo of ‘Meditation’ at the Musee Rodin in Paris. I think it’s one of the nicest places in Paris. Other cool places to go are The Catacombs, the Pere Lachaise Cemetry, and the Pompidou. […]
Feeling fairly rotten today. Have been keeping a cold thing at bay for a while, but I think I am about to sucumb. I might just stay home today and keep warm! Last week was great – really busy and […]
