I finally discovered that my Tallit work had been torn from the exhibition wall – in front of the Arts Centre staff – by someone known to them for their challenging behaviour. It had been rescued and stored for me […]
One bad week followed by one great week. That’s the way it wants to be, but luckily enough that’s how it’s been. Thanks for the comments David, Carolyn. Carolyn, Photoshop has been an invaluable slave, assisting me in planning and […]
After spending three days in bed ill, you would think i’d feel rested. But no, not really. Especially as I have spent most of today having stress related anger and throwing things I am halfway through making around the house […]
As time moves on and my piece grows, the inevitable conversation comes up over and over – am I going to sell the individual portraits at the degree show? What a great idea I’ve had, I’ll make a killing, earn […]

Notes from my sketchbook: Trying to ‘write-up’ a month’s worth of ideas and experiments seems like a rather trite and pointless task (I still haven’t gotten the balance between spontaneous blogging and my need to have anything I write planned […]

I went to see my University careers adviser last week. Partly, I went as a distraction from my impending essay deadlines, however it an was eye-opening, practical and exciting meeting. The focus was on making more of my writing and […]

I’m so enjoying working in the studio, despite the cold. I’m trying to get into a routine of 2 days there a week. It has been quiet since Mia and I moved in, but yesterday three other artists were there […]
These drawings are a selection of pen and ink reproductions of sketched diary entries. Some are from travels and some are just from everyday observations. I’ve just made a section for them on my new website www.caitlineirlyshoward.com
