I am loving this residency more and more!!! Not only are the official mentoring sessions brilliant and very informative but casual chats and impromptu crits are inspiring and helping me so much in terms of encouragement confidence and making me really think about the work I am producing. I have realised that my 6 months is flying by(as I knew they would) and also that I have been expecting too much from myself-a fellow studio holder wisely said-“its like taking up woodwork for 6 months and expecting to build a piano”! So…. I am rethinking what I want to achieve and get out of the residency
The image of the window in France has been driving me mad-I just cant get it right and have reworked it again and again-It is also very different from my other works.So yesterday I completely rethought and redid this work. It is still work in progress but I find it more exciting and alive. Cant wait to get back to it tomorrow. Comments welcome!
