Hello again - so, how's everyone doing?
Hope you are all well and ready for Xmas! - Hahaha - only joking (good job).
Tomorrow - Monday 19th October - I boldly state that I am hoping to get back to some sort of normality with my artwork. Yes - you read it here first. It's not a typing error.
I am looking forward to the restarting of the next sessions of life drawing, held locally with live models, a selection of pastel paper and a box of pastels. Hopefully, nice, free and easy working. Get that stiffening arm working and loosened up.
There is also a new venture I am looking forward to at home. We are now keeping a few hens, for the grandkids, us, and some fresh eggs too. But, I also hope to get to sketch and maybe do some work on them over their duration with us. Hope it all works out anyway; I can experiment with a few ideas and mediums, and all in the convenience of our own home.
Good lazy art eh?
Right - better get them in the coop then and look after them!
Until next time - enjoy your art.
Regards,
Paul

Update
Greetings Blogger Followers!
Not much in the form of blogging this last month I'm afraid to admit, but as usual, nothing quite runs to plan, but here is an update of sorts.
You may well be aware of my wife falling and injuring both her arms, and it was only yesterday (15th October), that we found out that she had actually broken one of her elbows. Previous doctors had been non-committal, presumably due to the modern culture of litigation. Doh!
I did take part in the Insight events, and had a few sales, covering the 2 weekends it ran.
Our bedroom has come in for some serious decorating and makeover. This has resulted in us living out of suitcases for the last few weeks in a near building site environment. Don't you just love looking back at those moments in your life, almost with a near fondness!
Last weekend saw the completion of one of my latest projects - keeping chickens!
Yup (ooo arrrgghhh - Mandy), I am now a smallholder(ish). Most of my good weather time was spent outdoors making a run and other bits for our new friends - again taking time away from my artwork. One of the plus sides is that come next summer, I hope to be able to sit outside and spend time working on some hen forms of artwork.
Failing that I could always decorate the eggs!!!
As ever - enjoy your art.
