UPDATE UPDATE

Have now had two glowing references from people who have engaged me in creative learning/practitioning roles. Makes me confident that I am following the right path. Have now updated my website http://www.art-cell.com/ with quotes and a new look home page. The quotes can be found on the home page and the AT WORK page. Check it out ! No other information to transfer to you all. And no new pics.
The work at KLA studios is progressing well, but now everyones bits and pieces are morphed into one blob so I cant get at anything or do any work in there. Cant wait for it to be completed. Its so exciting being a part of this KLA company. It really seems that its all starting to happen at last for me and I so hope it starts to happen for all of you if it hasnt yet.
Remember the motto folks; Love All, Hurt None........its the only religion you really need and dont forget that what you think becomes your future. I have found that to be true.

.......TO HE WHO WAITS.......

Hi there everybody ! My cousing VAL once told me that (everything comes to he who waits), regarding cars, and lo and behold just a couple of years later I had my first ever brand new car ! Since Uni I have been waiting for something to happen and, well, yes it is now happening and growing with the latest thing being a two week summer role as creative practitioner for a summer camp. 5 to 16 year olds are, I think , the target group. Should be fun.........hmm, stop me if Ive already told you this though.........but wait, have to tell you about the Donovan song Ive just had in my car. Its what might be called a fate song, but of course relates to those time of folk/rock music when hippies abounded and found solace in Sexy Sadie, as George called him in a song. the lyric goes, Happiness turns in a circular motion, Thought is like a little boat upon the sea, Everyone is part of everthing anyway, You can have everything if you let yourself be. So prophetic. So true. Anyway, in my usual manner of transgressing when writing I should get to the point. Which is; Had a reference from Tricia at V.A.L. (see how I connected the start with the almost end there? So clever is I ) that glowed so much it illuminated the room! Thanks for that Tricia. And also the long awaited pics of the Mural with the youth group she engaged me for after Ellesmere College have arrived. You can find more on Tricias facebook page or my own website , http://www.art-cell.com/, when I put them up there. So, for your gratification.......... may I proudly present..........LGBT and the Mural !!

DEGREE SHOW 2009

No pics. Just thoughts. Emotions. Impressions. DMU degree show last night seemed to be less populated than normal. Met so many people from the course, most of whom failed to recognise the new me, but one DID say I looked ten years younger ! Love that Tracy to bits ! Handshakes and hugs, missed the hugs, smiles, sharing last years experiences, renewing friendhips......... fantastic,,,,,,,,, the art? Hmm, well, maybe Im biased but I felt that overall ours was better but down in sculpture.........you MUST visit sculpture..........there is an interactice musical piece that I found to be just wonderful and has fed my own imagination for potential possibilities. Watch this space !!! Metting up with Red, and whoever else will be there if any, at lunchtime today then maybe go visit the LUSAD degree show. Speaking of LUSAD, couldnt believe my eyes when MARIO MINICHIELLO turned up to see the show. He is now in charge at Birmingham Uni. I first worked with him at LUSAD, he was the most amazing man. He also seems to have lost weight. Im sure he had something of a breakdown, somebody told me (but that may be malicious gossip, sorry if it is Mario), and he arrived on a motorbike. Sounds familiar doesnt it? Anyway, everything feels so right at the moment and, unlike previously, I am determined not to divert myself with stray thoughts and ideas, but am focusing on what I REALLY desire, want, need in order that the Universe fully understands and can deliver. Those Hindus definitely know something..............your thoughts create your future , they say : and I think I am living proof of this. Plus I have a copy of THE SECRET, which is western thinking on the same subject, where they say you subconscious brings you want you WANT and need if you can only prevent the conscious from getting in the way. Its very similar. It works. It isnt instant. Try it. About vegetarianism; I now find I can no longer even look at meat. I feel sick in the meat aisle at the supermarket. People, and I would have been one of them not long ago, think me silly I suppose. But thats how it is now. Well, gotta go prepare advertising stuff for the carnival stall I have to promote me locally. Take care all. remember to LOVE ALL , AND HURT NONE, ITS THE ONLY RELIGION YOU REALLY NEED.

GETTING IT

What a good day it has been today! Had a meeting and got engaged for two weeks on a summer art project at Rawlings Community College, Quorn. I was the last to be engaged so I got the timing just right foronce! ha ha ha. Then when i got home I found an email asking if Im interested in a clay animation day in the autumn............subject to the organiser obtaining funding, which Im confident about as she has a good track record on that sort of thing. SO...... aint it great? Oh, yes ! Cant believe its the degree show already this weekend. A whole year has passed and Ive gone through so much in my business life and my personal life, but its all coming together at last. I really feel it happening and completely trust the Universe to provide all that I want from the rest of my life. Everything in my past is coming together now and completing the person I now am. Happy in my own skin at last. Content to be me as this me is not the same as the me of before the metaphorical train crash. Im the new improved product. The KNIGHTON LANE STUDIOS have now got the steels installed for the new upper story where , I believe, the screen printing machinery will be installed. That takes me right back to my first ever job out of school, so its all about circles isnt it. Even the film acting role forms part of a circle and one which may widen in the near future. Its all just wonderful.........at last.........I think I will be going to the Loughborough private view on Friday if anyone wonders where I am at DMU, but will see the DMU degree show on the saturday as Im meeting up with (Red) Laura for liquid lunch at Soar Point on that day. Kill two birds with one stone as it were.........not literally you understand..........that wouldnt be right would it? Nope.

Cleaned the logo up a bit...........think I need to make a stencil. Need a banner or something for a stall Im having at local carnival event field. Chance to advertise my business. Anyone know of any cheap banner printers in Leicestershire?

Remember folks......... Love all, hurt none, its the only religion you need.
