Duvet Week

That’s allowed? Right!

This week Ive decided to have a major snit at the world, or maybe its the last of a major Easter egg hangover …

I got given a carving pumpkin. So i carved it

Busy Busy

Apologies for the radio silence.

As well as freaking out over one year anniversaries and stuff I’ve also got the builders in.

Flower type Things

So I was, I am, bored of scratchy, screaming – abstract non representational orange things (NROT).

But what else to do, something to catch the scratchy screaming feeling (and maybe later not so much) that doesn’t feel that much too close to the bone. Because although NROT have been about keeping things at arms length as much as they have been about composition and other art concept stuff.

Fallen among thieves

Someone has introduced me to Acrylic Flow painting. Im not sure if i am very very sorry or not. At least I haven’t bought any more art supplies.

Picot Maxima v. Floribundas

I made a thing for a friend

I’ve have been doing lots of stuff since I last posted. I’ve been finding it really hard to sit still for long enough to write about them.

Sorry about that

Four badly painted walls

Things are really hard at the moment, but I was really desperate to do something. Anything. I miss my shed. I haven’t been in it for a month and then two months before that. Don’t forget the shed.

These are reject stock printed canvases that I painted with gesso ages ago. For a while they’ve had a colleges mounted on them and have just been hanging around.

In a fit of deciding to do something about the heap my life is in at the moment I raided the end less cupboard of art for some inks.

Spontaneous art who’d of thunk it!

I’ve left these out side the shed and I might come back to them or might just attack the rest of the prepared canvases.

So it goes

Brick space is crashing my life

So here is a picture of a cat. That’s what the internet is for an’t it.

Map VIII -Exercises in Futility

I tried to do some new sketches for my 64 maps of hyperspace. It was hard. I even wrote some blurb, but I lost it. Anyway here are some examples of three weeks of frustration. When I’m feeling a little more relaxed about the experiment I’ll come back and comment on them fully.

I know, I know

I know i’m holding a lot back, or in, or down. I can be honest with myself that far. Anything more than a furious back scribble takes planning and time. Giving me the opportunity to edit out any vulnerabilities.
So there i’ve said it.
