Week 23:Statement of Intent (SOI).
I enjoyed the launch, I like the start of the projects and I am going to stick to my guns this project. I know some people feel confused and uncomfortable with the way I work. It feels messy and confused but I like the freedom to discard things as I go along and find the…
Week 22: “Magna Carta still forms an important symbol of liberty today”

Week 22: cave painting.
I am becoming more interested in my instinctive interest in ”Domestic Art”. Cave painting (decorating our living spaces, recording our daily lives) reads as domestic to me as it is a form of teaching/learning or entertaining so ingrained in our make up that we deny it at our peril. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/newly-discovered-indonesian-cave-art-may-represent-worlds-oldest-known-hunting-scene-180973761/?utm_source=smithsoniandaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20191212-daily-responsive&spMailingID=41324770&spUserID=NzQwNDUzMzg2MTYS1&spJobID=1661177450&spReportId=MTY2MTE3NzQ1MAS2

Clouds come into this some where along with magic carpets – think I understand why. Adventures which start with a quest/project and your adventure…
Week 22:Collections.
I have realised I collect, gather, rearrange and transform. I Some times this is cooking, nest building or my practise. I hesitate to call it painting. Often it’s my family, which drives them mad. Sometimes it’s painting. Drawing seems to be my way of connecting it all. Explaining it. I’m surprised I haven’t done more…
Week 22: Kitchen Cupboard Paint – Yellow and Red.
