Well, at long last, I have been able to get into my studio space as building work comes to a conclusion. Not quite finished, but at least the spaces are now wor
kable. Because of this I have been able to start work on paintings for the KLA exhibition at the RACentre in March. The theme is food, if you recall, under the title of "BANQUET......HURRAH!" I love the shape of eggs, its now the nearest thing to eating animals that I undulge in and, of course, they featured heavily in the life of DALI .

The funding means that not only are the materials and venue (a stall in the market........ pray for fair weather) catered for but it also enables me to pay a freelancer to assist me............Melissa Theobold is that freelancer. For people who dont know, Melissa was on my fine art course at DMU and was awarded a 1st ! We are both excited about the day. The plan is to get 1000 people to scribble, draw or doodle anything they want on the postcards provided, using the pens provided and then, at a date and venue yet to be organised, they will exhibited. Cant wait !!
The market stall will be adorned with a banner Ive had printed especially for the day, with the idea that it will come in useful for other events in the future.
Last week I had two days working for FIND YOUR TALENT and CREATIVE LEICESTERSHIRE on the Young Ambassodors / Young Voices "Where Next" event held at the Peepul Centre, Leicester. W
hat a great building ! I didnt realise it was so big and well designed. A theatre and a community place too! Love it. Had a great two days there 
working with primary aged children and young teenagers too. The two workshops I worked in presented their "findings" on the stage to the rest of the youngsters/teachers. I love being a freelance creative practitioner. You get to meet so many interesting and talented people of all ages and disciplines and I want more, more , more ! lol. Im now on the Soft Touch list of freelancers too.
It feels like my arts based business is starting to kick in, but lets not count chickens etc..
Well, on that happy note I will draw to a close. Dont forget;
You are what you think, your thoughts create your future.
Love All, Hurt None, its the only religion you really need.
