"When I was young and full of life..
my medium was evening light."
When I was a kid, we didn't have that many round stairways.
Come to think of it, I don't remember seeing any.
But I should have seen them coming.
The building I lived in, had a square stairway with a ten stair run and then they make a 90 degree left-hand turn and up, and then they repeat again. Right-hand if you were going down, all depending if you were coming home or going out to a movie or such.
Eventually, some wise-guy was bound to say: Hey! let's cut out the corners.
His name could have been Alfred. Or Fred, for short.
I don't see him as being a Sidney or a Cecil - it takes a man of vision.
The whole crew would sit down and have a brain-storming session, whereupon they would get into that non-linear thinking stuff. Which I could never figure out. I had tried non-linear once when I had run out of gas. Out on the Prairies.
Didn't work for me.

Recollections of all great moments of sharing, laughing, and secretly licking the cake! :-)
For all those great memories of past birthdays!
And for many, many more of them!

Looking back on turbulence, we see patterns in the traces that it leaves, and imagine a kind of logic, or let's tell it like it is, a history with some element of inevitability. Of course we are wrong, and the grunts in Vietnam were correct: shit happens.
This applies equally to our human story - at any scale - and to patterns in the sand.
Recollections from Margaret Madden
I was born in Formby Village in 1942 and lived at 32 Chapel Lane for 21 years.
My grandfather John Kershaw bought the property about 1909. He was a cabinet maker/funeral director and sold second hand furniture. His son and my father, Charlie Kershaw, carried on the business. We lived above and behind the shops. I remember the shop on the right was our furniture shop filled with furniture and house clearances and the shop on the left was leased to Ewings a baker and confectioners.
At the side of the house was a very wide passage with a glass roof, this was also full of furniture. At the back of the property was a large garden, greenhouse, lawn, apple trees and beautiful arch covered roses, together with three workshops, at the bottom of the garden was the Conservative Club Bowling Green. My father often displayed the furniture on the pavement outside the shop.
He delivered the furniture on a handcart with me sitting on the top, when I was older aged about 9 or 10 I helped him push the cart. Sometime in the 1950's he leased out the furniture shop and it became a Fresh Fish shop, while still selling furniture from the back. I remember often going to McSymons, next door, to get a penny bag of broken biscuits (no packets of biscuits then ). I also remember the Tudor Toy Shop having a most beautiful window display of toys at Christmas, all kinds of dolls sitting on swings etc. And that year I was so lucky to get one for Christmas.

I'm ashamed to say I've forgotten this gentleman's name, but he was a crewman on the Cobia during the war, and we are in his duty station, the aft torpedo room. He's telling us about a Very Bad Day, when they got depth-charged so long and so hard that the Boat got stuck in the mud on the bottom.
The second panel in my Toy (Re)collections piece for Lulubell toys. Part of these pieces was to add a story or explanation of what the artists early toy memories are and how they inspired them to become toy designers. My explanation is typically long winded and employs the word "I" excessively. Sorry. I won't reprint it here. Too long...
The show is Saturday, June 5th
from 6-9PM

Humans are complex, imaginative, and explorative beings. We are investigators, travelers, builders, and lovers. We create and destroy—build and tear down—come together and fall apart. We are thinkers and doers; determined to locate our exact physical and philosophical place within the universe. I am interested in the dichotomy between investigation and imagination, the physical world and the imaginary world, the effects of time, and how these concepts and places converge within the spectrum of visual art. I use experimental casting and burnout techniques to create three dimensional ceramic paintings in the forms of towers, walls, orbs, and tiles. Combustibles, ceramic materials, and liquid clay are arranged inside plaster molds. The kiln firing process alters the materials, creating jagged void spaces, shimmering colors, and unique textures. These sculptures symbolize our evolution, our complexity, our history, and investigate hidden emotions and thoughts within.
