Today I managed to return to the studio for a while and varnished these two paintings in readiness for the Hastings exhibition. Ive been thinking of a title for the show, although actually, the gallery havent asked for a title. Im not sure how necessary a title is, but I think it all helps. When I make a decision I will email them so that they can then publicise it better. Which means I had best decide quite soon. Since the works are sort of stories, sort of meditations, I have been thinking along the lines of; "True Life and Other Myths", or "Truth and Other Lies", or "Imaginings and Twisted Tales". Maybe I should put it up for a vote? Truthfully I rather like the first title proposal. So much so that I may use it for every exhibition I ever do from now on. Now, about that vote............... please do let me know. In fact if you have a better suggestion then definitely let me know.........a.s.a.p. .
Tomorrow Im going canvass hunting.
I visited my friend Dianne today and we talked about me for a change. She thinks I have post degree depression. Maybe she has a point. She offered me much the same advice as Shilpa regarding getting what you want by letting go of what you want, which is so hard to do. She also advised me to make a wish board. Putting down in words or images or both just what I want from life now, and to have drawings of fish around the studio. Well, Im up for most things and so Ive done it. In keeping with this Im off to the taxi office tomorrow to seek out more hours as Im getting desperate for money. I may even defer the Masters, seriously thinking about it. Tonight Im going to tell the Universe that if I cant have what I want and therefore have a meaningful life then it may as well end it now as the idea of simply existing...........well, thats a waste.
On a lighter side, my soon to be daughter in law, had her birthday today and part of her prezzy from son number one was for her to have a massage............... and lo and behold two members of the England cricket team came in wearing nothing but dressing gowns ! Messrs. Vaughan and Collingwood no less! (not that I would know them if I saw them, lol)
Remember people, Love all and hurt none...........its the only religion you need.

True Life and other Myths is the best
have only just discoverd your blog, Congrats on your B.A by the way. I have just finished my second year at Portsmouth, hope all goes well with the show.
Thanks Chris, I think you made the correct choice. Its usually the first thing you think of thats right isnt it?. Hope your third year goes well. I wound up with a 2:2, which seemed to be the norm. In the end, it isnt the grade its what you yourself got out of the course. Now that you have found my blog, keep coming back. Wy not subscribe to it? Have a look at my website whilst your at it. Is Hastings far from Portsmouth? Why not come along to the little exhibition when it starts (Spet 29 to October 6). CHeers mate, and remember to Love yourself.
