As I mentioned in my last post, over the last little while I have been doing a lot of thinking and talking about art and what is art and what is my art like….

The last couple of days I have been trying to figure out what to focus on next. How to find a focus?

I have mentioned before that I have had trouble focusing on any one thing because there are so many different things that catch my attention…

well there has been more to it than that…. (continue reading…)

My whole life, I have lived with the idea that an artist is someone who enjoys sketching, is good at painting, and is able to do a good portrait by hand without the aid of a camera…

Well!

I have been doing a lot of thinking and talking in the last little while and have finally come to the conclusion that you can be an artist and not like those ways of creating art.

What really got the idea sunk into my heart though was a little walk with the sketch book a couple of weeks back….. (continue reading…)

I’ve been going through one of those ‘what is the meaning of life?’ & ‘what is the point of it all?’ moods the last few days. I’m sure everyone gets them at some point or another. … What’s more, for me, it is often wrapped up with a certain lack of enthusiasm for art. Not so much because there is nothing I want to do, but more because there is too much that I want to do and I feel like everything can not possibly done in the time that I have available (namely today because tomorrow is just too far away to think about!)…. so what is the point? if that makes sense? So there is usualy a need to sit down and prioritise again, to find one focus.

That’s what I have been doing today…  Starting with a re-vamp of this site.
