It seems that my performance went down well with both the audience and staff at the Ovalhouse. I was praised on how I adapted my performance and preparation to the multi- user environment of the cafe area. It was good to have been able to be self motivated and not to need much support, other than in the press and publicity area. This somewhere I need to be more confident and proactive. I know I have a tendency to have doubts near to the realisation of work and shy away from seeking publicity, this is not good timing. With a look to the future Michael and I hatched out a plan and a name for my next performance ‘Jography’ examining the opposition of running and drawing. Hopefully in 2012 as the Olympic organisers try to combine art and sport it will be topical. It is a new and exacting experience to be filling in a grant application to the Arts Council, but it has helped me to make my plans more concrete.
