Last post since February - aheem. Anyway Christmas is upon us and I've printed some Christmas Cards. The wee proofing letterpress - (Mr. Stephenson Blake) is getting through a large amount of work and people seem to like what they see. The one shown seems to have practically sold out.
Getting through some paintings and I need to finish quite a few. Love to have an exhibition soon. There is a desire though to beat the credit crunch - its not a nutty snack with money in it - its actually like reverse Robin Hood - steal from the poor so the rich can have bonuses and houses for their ducks.
Want to start training before Christmas - triathlon yes it's three disciplines Judah, Aria & Mercy (My three kids).
Art seems like an indulgence right now if it doesn't magically transform into money then it isn't worth it. The thing is though I don't know the secret of the art genie - what makes money and what doesn't - although if I knew would I only create what sold? Well probably not. New shop online...Check it out

Life Hindering Treacle

My goodness its been awhile. Do you get struck off the blogging world for not keeping up. Feels like everybody else is on the ball - and I fumble after. Trip over things, damage things, hurt myself - normal day. Triathlon training to pot - painting and sculpture work slow. I think I've bathed in a life hindering treacle.

Excited about the possibilities of my work after visiting a Baroque research day at the National Gallery of Scotland. 2 curators and 1 academic exposed their passions and I got overly enthused started stalking them the whole day. Court order fixed that.

That'll do for now
