The year of our lord 02/09/12 Second blog.....ooooer.

Well peeps...I am now well installed in High Street Gallery so do pop along and have a butchers. The gallery is full of fabulous art and David Johnston is always on hand to give you the low down and make you most welcome. "Puck" is there...along with "Banquo" and the "Cloud Angel"....I'm also now installed in Jersey...hurrah"
Along with all this I have finally finished "Ophelia and the Storm"....it shows ol' Ophelia going quietly bonkers whilst a big eff off storm looms in the background. It was an odd one to do as I had no idea how it was going to turn out. The thing with my work is...sometimes it becomes more organic than I anticipated and this was one of those times. As I tend to paint like a jigsaw it was looking well wierd with just a big "man-storm" looming....no one had any bleedin' idea what I was doing....mmmm...I was unsure at times...mind that may well be my great age as I have no idea what I'm doing most of the times these days....ho hum. Any rode up...it all went swimmingly well in the end and she is currently on display at Craigton House on the Hopetoun estate just outside Edinburgh. It's a lovely venue and well worth checking out. I nipped across to Hopetoun House and had cake...it was delicious....yum yum.

Thankyou for taking the time...
