Month: May 2017

I want to try and sell my work, I want to try and fine new opportunities, I want to find new audiences for my work. For this to happen I need to have an online profile. However this afternoon has been taken up by a waterfall of link after link, after email, etc.  that have kept me from working I am not sure if its all worth it . Here I am though, nearly 10pm, and caught up with my collages. All’s well that ends well , so they say.

Sunday, a day of rest, well no not really . The suns disappeared and the boots are back on. Still the gardens appreciated the rain, and tomorrow is another day. Fantastic rehearsal yesterday for a performance I am taking part in next week, excited hope my arm holds out!

Nothing unusual in that, but with memories tender and tears not yet dry from Mondays bombing for some it must of been another awful day.

I still find it difficult to put into words the pain and loss felt by the death of a loved one.

It is the fear of not knowing what they will do next that the terrorists want, we cannot let them scare us into changing how we live . So here are yesterdays and todays collages.

Sometimes things happen and they touch many people at the same time. In Manchester on Monday evening one person decided to do something that has touched so many people. Today it came very close to me. I am sad, hurt and angry. I am lost for words really. To those who had to witness the events in Manchester,  or who have lost a loved one take strength in your family and friends . Take time to heal.

Made and posted in one day, whoop whoop,  I am happy. Lots of ideas today, although it started off a bit dark , I think I turned it into something brighter. What do you think ? Well anyway I am happy with todays work. There I said it. I am happy with my work, for today anyway…

… there had to be something! cropped the image too much , well I am posting anyway, I will add the full image later. DONT KILL MY VIBE

 

 

Some days I struggle to keep motivated, other days are not so bad and some I eternally grateful for. Clear blue sky and the wisteria full of bees , it has been a joy to sit in the garden today. Work too has kept me as busy as the bees, todays collage, some sketchbook pages , a recycled bag and some more small squares to make another blanket.

Well after two days in London with some lovely young people doing their Bronze Arts award I am beginning to catch up with things, only just but there you go. Perhaps its my age. Taking each day as it comes, one foot in front of the other. The sun rose this morning  and is beginning to set, with luck it will all happen again tomorrow. This set of collages I feel work well. I am happy with them.

May, a new month , and not off to a good start. Not much paid work and the dark demons began to creep into my thoughts. Have I done the right thing, will I be able to pay the bills…

But yes the bill day has been and gone, and all were paid, all be it just, just need to stay focused and keep making. May has lots to keep me busy, and June is looking positive, I even have things in the diary for July.

So here are Mays first five days, hope your still following.

Trust in the universe and she will take care of you, trust in the universe and she will take care of you…
