The project was like nothing I had done before and was the most intense project I think I have ever delivered. Left me exhausted and behind schedule for the mosaics. So over the xmas I had to put a bit of a shift in the cooler. I have the clerk of works from the developer visiting my workshop next Wed to see the progress and whether things are shaping up as they should be, and talk about installation….I am not going to make the dates in my contract but it has taken over two years to get to here, so whats the rush. I am sure I can delay installation without stressing anyone out too much.
I am a work robot and can’t string much thought together for writting.
My mind is mush and in auto pilot. Systems in my head are beginning to close down and all there is to do is crack rocks day in day out in the cooler.
But…….tommorrow I am looking forward to managing the relationship between yellow and mauve. Small beer, but I am actually looking forward to yellow and mauve. Mosaic is very different from paint as you have to use the colours as they are manufatured and if you want to change the yellow then you have to optically blend it with other greys, browns, off whites. You cant just make the yellow you want, as you can with paint. Blending with distance mixing the coulours for you, kind of like Seurat and Pontillism.
