Visiting Art Studios in Glasgow. An Intro:
To blog or not to blog; I am posting this as my first entry, as an introduction to my path as a practising Artist…as it really illustrates my own personal journey in the last few years. Every Artist is on their own path… We may be on the right track but if we keep still we may get run over, to paraphrase a famous saying.
Reading back through this entry shows me how I’ve struggled through to discover my artistic identity over the last few years… like a drop of paint meandering down a painting, to it’s final resting spot. It also brings back not only memories but the intense emotions I was feeling as I wrote my thoughts. It’s strange how life takes its turns… some of the feelings I touched upon, of visiting studios, of seeing unused spaces are now experiences I’ve had first-hand. I know what it feels like to have taken the step to work from a studio space.
I hope to share some of those emotions with you as this blog takes shape. For now, this is both my retrospective glance to my mind and a window to how I still feel. Part 2 to follow…
