New week, and a new term. Everyone should be back today, providing they weren’t out of the country and are therefore caught up in all this flight-grounding business due to the volcanic ash from Iceland. It seems a great idea, go on holiday and often wish you got stranded and couldn’t get back…. but I bet anyone off the course affected by it is probably freaking out right now as there’s not long left till our deadline and there’s no obvious end to this air crisis. It’s affected quite a few of my friends, some on holiday, some on business trips. Thinking of you all.
I got down to my teens last week, I’m going into this week with 16 paintings left to do. Bar the few I want to re-do, I don’t think thats a bad place to be at all, considering we have 3 weeks studio time left. But as I said last time there’s so much more ‘stuff’ to get done. I did write a list (no particular order yet):
*update website
*artist statement
*book/catalogue of paintings
*documentation – diary; internet research; gallery visits; painting processes; bibliography; a-n update…
*dissertation ‘recording’- promised myself I’d get this done during this unit of work, its not being marked, just for self satisfaction really. The dissertation should already be marked and we should get marks back this week if rumours hold true. Yikes!
*soundpiece?
*animation?
*postcards/business cards
On the most part I have till the 4th June when the assessment starts to get through this little lot. But before then I have to finish my piece and hang it in the space, after preparing that.
So, as I said a lot to get done!!!
