1st post on artists talking.
ive promoted myself from degrees talking.
so this is it, the start of something new, well the continuation and progression rather than ‘new’ i hope. i feel i have the confidence and drive to continue making work that i feel is worthy of others time, that is i feel that right at this moment, i expect this feeling will change from day to day, but as long as i continue with the drive it should be ok (?).
i have tried to concentrate this month on sorting out the stuff that fell by the wayside during the last 6months/3yrs. ive made space in the studio to swing a cat, ive done paperwork and filed. today i am happy with as a working day. edited and moved forward a video piece, sent off a proposal and ive done 4loads of washing. my kids returned from a weeks hol with their dad and luckily its a good day for drying, otherwise it would have not been such a topday.
ive had some good feedback from my degree show, including a possible trip and a studio visit in the pipeline, i am sort of not wanting to jinx them by getting too excited and relying on them to come true. best, i think, to carry on with the stuff i am doing already and attempt to realize the projects on the go and in the notebook, and if exciting stuff happens then that will be exciting.
anyways i am off and running and i plan to keep it up. any advice or comments welcome, i hear its quite friendly here?
