I have been exploring, working with different materials, trying to understand how they move and it it suits my visions. I normally work with fabric's and I can see that it suits me but I want to explore fabric's from a different perspective what that is I am not sure as yet. I have started to play with resin by making Brooches to try and learn how to use it as well as understand the best way to apply it to my ideas....................... Loads to learn:-)
It's been a long time, far to long.
I have just finished a workshop gig at William Morris Gallery, which I really enjoyed, it did run over time but that's because I was really getting into it and didn't take note of the time. I was given a lift to the station by a fellow artist who was also working on the event but in another room, we chewed the fat for a short while then I jumped out the car. As I was about to run to the station my stomach started to talk to me and of course I had to heed its voice, so I diverted to a corner shop not thinking whether I had any money luckly I found a pound and purchased a packet of crisps... Mmm very nurtrise but I tell you this it helped. I boarded the tube, found a seat and settled down waiting for my stop, in front of me was a lovely women and her child, all seem well so I thought, how wrong was I. The young child looked sleepy and rested her head on her mother's shoulder. Like a flash she leaned forward and vomited, I managed to move my feet out of the way before the vomit hit the ground. I felt so sorry for the child but also glad that I didn't get hit by the projectile. I hope the both got home safe. It's the worse thing ever when your child is sick but being out with them and they are sick their is a sense of helpless you feel and I saw that in the mothers eyes. I hope they are both OK.
