So no new news, no shows or new work (yet, its slow progress). I have however been reading quite alot and making rambling notes on my reading blog ‘painting and reading’. I’m alot more clearer on understanding where my paintings are going. This blog is really just so I can keep track of my research but of you are curious there is a link in the links section (right).

This painting is now four years in the making, I’ve been coming back to it on and off because its so difficult. Going to make a concerted effort to finish it this year.

I’m taking part in this 5 day festival taking place at The Courtyard Theatre in Hoxton from 26 April to 30 April.
http://luxurygoods.freevar.com/
“We invite you to be part of a 5 night long program of multi-disciplined arts in our festival discussing the illusion of art as a luxury good. From outsider art to conceptual art and so on, all creative practices have a value invested in them that often vastly exceeds the artwork’s actual material value. This luxury is what makes the process or end result something we might call an illusion But how far can we consider art as ‘illusion’? Is there illusion from artists and as people in the creative process of making work? Does it add value? Is it necessary in art-making? Is artistic expression an illusion?
We would like you to consider how your practice is affected by the illusion that the items you create are considered luxury goods.”

The wonders of getting stuff for free! Clothes swap at the Whitechapel Gallery organised by myself and Blanca Garay – free outfits, parsnip and maple syrup cake, music and knitting. Not only was it great for the environment and the pocket but tons of fun!
