Non-essential shops

My bespoke framer will not be open at the moment, so at least I'm not spending vast amounts to prepare 'Shibboleth' for exhibition...

Lot of waffle

I usually have the Beeb Breakfast show on the PC as I type. It is all blather. Me and Bear. I had the teddy specially made, but fear it...

Awake at 5.15!

It's not unusual. Just wish it wasn't so hard to get back to sleep! Holy Moses. One of those old-fashioned phrases. Michelangelo bursting...

Washing on

Good that my appliances are working, though the fridge-freezer was a leftover from the previous tenant, stored in the garage whe we took...

Can't think of any catchy titles

It was sunny, but now it's overcast and they say there may be snow in the West. Skin. The usual media mix. This time it's Marsyas and...

Nap now?

I so need it. Not a good start to the week, I can tell you! Thicket, oil pastel and ink on A4 pastel paper. James Blunt on Prime. Might...

Nap this afternoon

I'll need it Yesterday went well: I got a free glass brick to work on! Grattage over calendar photo. I hate to admit it, but an...

Trees in bud

I look out over a copse and a lumber yard. One is in flux, the other Groundhog-like. St Eustace. Mixed media on A4 Ingres paper. The...

The sun has come out

Before Lockdown it didn't bother me so much, but it does help! Trick Cyclist. Acrylic on A4 carboard. From the 1980s. If I had a brain...

Pitch dark outside

Which is just a little better reporting that it is thus within. After Hilton. Roger, that is. I should explain the melancholy sub-heading...

3037 posts on Instagram

Not sure I believe it, and not sure what I think about the pointlessness of it all? A Pretty Piece of Flesh. Maybe called it that because...

Shibboleth

This is the first of the sketches I will show you. It is painted on a piece of cardboard from a pizza - I love pizza. This is more like a...

Opened an Easter egg already

In my defence: there was very little other chocolate in the house! getting the paint to blur and smudge depends on relative density. It...

It feels like the task of Sisyphus

It's the 80th day of the year and I have only done 66 posts. At the moment this assemblage of canvas stretchers is to be called...

When I get to 100...

..I may start to cull earlier posts. We'll see. At the mo it's not an issue. I have made a fair few little sculptures, though a fair...

The sun's gone in!

Got up to brightness sifting through the blinds and curtains, but not any more. Bullfighting, collaged acrylic and enamel mounted on...

Make myself do it!

No interaction here, so the question: how long before I delete a post? doesn't apply. The Rape of Europa. Old photos plus enamel spots....

Next door has been sold

Reminds me of the flux of everything in the universe. Obscurely! Three More Fates. I started using enamel simply because I wanted a paint...

Pointless

I can't help bute feel, most of the time, that it is all meaningless and useless. Three Fates. I like the accidental; I like the...
