Hi all, just a quick note to say that I've not entirely forgotten this blog. I've been working on a pic that had a lot of little elements in it. However, its a commission and a surprise pressie for a mate. Now, he knows something is coming but no clue otherwise. His wife knows all (don't they all...). So, I can't really post anything from it here. Still, it has given me plenty of practice at a new technique so I've gained alot from it.
The only other action has been when I went to the hall where my exhibition is. It is in between two theatres that get used for conferences so a lot of people hang about. All my stash of business cards had gone so I was asked to bring some more in. Whilst there I heard myself volunteering to come back at the lunch break and do a small painting. I kept it simple and copied the cover of an aboriginal singers CD, Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu. I've attached the result. It was a modified acrylic on paper. A few people stopped to chat but mainly about technical stuff rather than, "Who do I make the cheque out to?" but it was less nerve wracking than I imagined.
Winter here folks so keeping warm is the latest challenge.
