Making this blog is almost like the theoretical equivalent of laying out work for a catalogue or exhibition. In terms of allowing me to gather, assess and take stock of where my work is. Stepping back helps me to see the overall direction my work is taking, much like in the process of painting or any other artform.
Being middle aged does not allow me the clarity of thought I enjoyed in my youth, so methodically recoring ideas is a useful way of regaining a level of order to my thought processes.
I have so much to think about lately. Living in a new part of the country is proving such a lot to come to terms with. There is such a lot to take in, it’s a whole new culture, almost like living in a new country. So much new history, local knowledge and traditions to be learned.
