In 2010 i think Im gonna focus on a new set of work, continuing from my college work of paintings and digital prints, but making it exclusively paintings. I like trying my hand at digital, but its painting that really moves me.

So Im going to do less photography and more paintings in 2010. Im hoping to exhibit them, so I may, may not (?) post them all on here, but show you glimpses of them instead. College isnt going too well mentally, so I need to find a focus to work.

 

Im also nearly at the end of a 4 year project of painting 3 sets of Buddhist Statues for a local Buddhist Centre's very large shrine, which will be the main focus of the whole community. This has been one of the most rewarding things I have ever done.

 

My B.A is looking less likely to be finished as Im no longer enjoying it.......

 

Thank you to all the artists and photographers on here, who really inspire me to carry on working. xox

Okay another swap going on here. I hope she ain't looking. Hey I just noticed my "new" 1980's bracelets got in the photo too. They are soooo cool I remember having loads of those and some matching jelly shoes too.

In the UK this rare orchid is now confined to the southern part of England where it lives in short, cropped grass on chalk or limestone. The small size and overall green-yellow colouration would make it difficult to find although it can be in such huge numbers at Noar Hill that it doesn't take you too long. The name comes from the strong honey scent.

Old progress pics of the last stages of Ingenue before molding.

I bought three canvases last week and they have been intimidating me ever since.

Two are needed for projects which I have almost finished and the other ( the largest) is for an exhibition in the Autumn.

I took the plunge today as the weather has improved overnight and prepared the backgrounds for the first two pieces.

One is covered with tissue, the other with pieces of French newspaper. They will both be coated with gesso later

I have beautiful things to play with this week, like gorgeous wool blanketing samples. Incredibly soft, they will be put to work in January to make some very special Cuddly Cats.

typing onto tissue paper, unfortunately I dropped my favourite typewriter, so having to use my £4 Imperial tab-o-matic!

Decorative grid sample. The strips are felt, decorated with heat bonded enamelling powder and the links are painted paper. This could be developed further

This is the device that is on the other end of the system - it has a receiver radio and translates the signals from the buttons into something that the conputer recognizes as a usb keyboard. It is made using hardware and software from the VUSB toolkit.

Okay so there is this person that keeps getting rid of this really great vintage knit fabric. All I have to say is one man's trash is another man's treasure. Gosh I just love thrift stores.

One little phototrip to the industry zone, it not ready yet like you see, but like me making progress

I'm starting some mixed media pieces which require some preparatory work.

This picture shows the result of ironing the inside of a crisp packet between two pieces of plain paper.

I may leave it unadorned or I may decide to paint or otherwise embellish it.

A sample of the extreme order and neatness involved mid project.

The neverending afghan. Not too bad actually for such a paltry crocheter!
