I saw my hairdresser earlier today, we had the usual chat about what we’d both been doing recently and she went on to ask me if I’d seen various programmes on television. I smiled and said “No”. I think she thought I must be a bit boring because I hadn’t seen the latest blockbusters. But […]
The other week Indigo mentioned that she was interested in having a tee shirt with my “rainbow girl” image on it, so after a bit of investigating for the best result, I had one printed for her. And I’m delighted that she’s very pleased with it and wanting to show it off, so much so, […]
This week, I’ve had the initial design ok’d by dj kirkby for her erotic landscape, and now better understand the image she’s looking for and how I’m going to create it. Normally when painting a picture, I have a clear idea as to what I’m doing, and how I’m going to do it, but with […]
I’m making progress with my two erotic landscape paintings, after what seems an interminable age of nothing happening (to me, at least!). I now have a clearer idea of what dj kirkby wants for her erotic landscape, and separate to that I have now had the initial sketch ok’d of the other painting of the […]
I’ve spent all this week thinking. Nothing wrong in that. I do it a lot! But I haven’t been producing. And that’s frustrating for me. I like to produce artwork on a constant level. It feeds the momentum of my creativity. But this week I’ve had to think……. deeply……about how I’m best going to do […]
Just in my short blogging life I’ve seen the birth of a few blogs. Its fun to see, how they burst forth upon the world and develop and evolve into a thing of beauty. I know mine has developed since I first started, and I like the change in it, and the people I’ve met […]
I’ve been fortunate to see two shows within the last few days – both ones I’ve been looking forward to for some time as they were separately booked months ago. The first was Delirium, a Cirque du Soleil show, new to me, and I’m a big fan of Cirque. A spectacular surreal show with all […]
I’ve been busy this week with many things on various levels, but I’ve also been in separate discussions with two unconnected people who want totally different versions of the same thing! They both want me to do a painting for them, in oils, on a box canvas, and they both want an erotic landscape. Great […]
Like the other bloggers, I was touched that Cherrie and Hardin could find time to see me during their short stop-over in England, but I have known for some time that they admire my artwork on many levels, and wanted to see my paintings for real rather than just on the internet, and ask various […]
When I’m out and about I tend to look at people with an artists eye – thinking how I’d love paint them if they’re exceptional in anyway. The other night in the local take-away there was a stunning looking blonde girl who’d come to collect her order, and I could hardly take my eyes off […]
I’ve always loved clever paintings, the sort where something is hidden within the image and at first glance it seems like an innocuous painting, but then you realise there’s actually a clever depiction of something which puts a whole new twist on what you’re looking at. And it’s even better if some people see it, […]
