Christmas has been wonderful with all the family staying up here in Yorkshire. It has been a lovely opportunity to get to know our new grandson properly. We are planning regular visits to London to keep the relationship strong.
Meanwhile, on with the business of being a “returning” artist. I have an upcoming exhibition with a group of artists and students in the spring, based on democracy. Each artist has a de-commissioned balltot box to work with as a starting point. I have until early Feb. to get to a point where it can be photographed, so I shall be in the studio for the next few weeks.
Plans for this year are simple really;
- Develop my work in the studio.
- Select and enter any suitable exhibiting opportunities that come up.
- Don’t get side tracked.
- Fight the constant doubt.
- Stay in contact with the interesting artists I have met in the last few years.
- Keep the entries in this blog regular, using it as a place to reflect on my practice and hopefully connect with other artists here because it is such a wonderful, supportive and interesting community.
- Fight the constant doubt. (I know, I’ve put it twice, but it looms so!)
