New Post!

Wow!

Just looking over my blogs, website, Facebook and Twitters and I realised that it's almost a month since my last posting on here, something I can hardly believe - but it's true; it's in front of me in er, different colours.

But when I look back and think how, what and why, it does make some sense; I broke my elbow which curtailed my exploits, then went on holiday, then spent a busy week with my wife as she had extra time off work, and nothing seems to go faster than time.

I just know that you will all be thrilled to know that I did manage to get some sketching and painting in whilst away - I just knew those watercolour pencils would come in handy some day! Over the course of the week I got around 15 sketches done - some I think are quite good and some mediocre, but as in Egypt, I again drew (no pun intended) a small crowd and some interest. That's got to be good - as it does show people that there are artists out there of differing experience - often found in even the more modest places. Anything can be used as a subject, and it hopefully gives people a different view of usually everyday objects.

My time was also spent taking plenty of photographs of various subjects which are now safely downloaded onto my PC (no more Bank Holidays for those little Japanese men inside my camera); some of these I think will make some really nice paintings. Just hope I can do some of them justice.

So, as you may guess - no real work equals no new pictorial postings - for now anyway. Hopefully I will be able to rectify that sooner rather than later.

Until next time - enjoy your art.
