All in adaptability

Have Wheels (will travel)

Finding ways to personally connect your art with the public and activate art conversations can consume a lot of an artist’s time. But making art and culture accessible can be as simple as creating a pop up art event, staging an artisan market or taking your art to the streets. Have art, will travel.

Field Experiments

I have always been drawn to travellers’ tales, both adventure travel tales as well as stories of the Roma people and travellers who were once a common sight camped in the English countryside. Thinking about travelling and finding shelter these past two weeks has led me to experiment with cyanotype prints out in the field with what materials I had to hand.

Bedrock

I’m drawn to rocks for inspiration, especially the bedrock upon which we build the structures of our lives. Looking closer, it is the striations and seam lines, the tiny holes in the rocks that are the most interesting. The cracks where change is most evident, bringing elemental forces in play.

Good Vibrations

Einstein said “Everything is energy and that's all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way.” I’ve noticed that when I choose to be happy, no matter what is going on in my life or the outside world, my energy lifts and I attract good things into my life.

Christmas message

The greatest Christmas gift you can give yourself this year is getting confident with uncertainty. Artists and creative people in every field have led the way on adaptability. It is my key word for 2022! Merry Christmas to all my readers and supporters.
