Afternoon readers. The day started with cloud /sea mist then light rain and then heavier rain. The highlights today have been: – three canine visitors all allowed to have treats – people coming across me and coming in -visitor who talked about the boss coming to see me at some point returning with said boss …
Late post, but today’s key points. Today I sought advice on our homing pigeon- feed, water, it will fly on or stay. Oh, or capture it and contact owner – I am not climbing on the roof so we will go with first solution, after all we feed the birds everyday anyway. Damp start which …
Another poor weather forecast that didn’t all materialise. Rain this morning but time for local wildlife indoors and out. First improvement for me -a better night’s sleep. Woke and watched three brown hares playing chase in and through the garden jumping over the wall into the woods and then reappearing. I have heard from visitors …
Well in 2017 my biggest sale was on day two when I sold a print of the beach huts. My realistic non pressured sales target for 2018 as a whole is to “sell some art”. So selling two prints sounds like a reasonable aspiration for 2018. Yesterday I sold an original, admittedly to my brother …
Well, an early start today. Not intentionally but woke at 04:00 and never managed to get back to sleep. Having this sort of view makes it a joy. Early thundery showers cleared and the day became absolutely gorgeous and definitely a beach day so I as not surprised to see no people for a long …
A wet start to the day, well admittedly very early it was wet but deer and hares were out to play. Well, it felt really quiet at times even in the number of walkers passing. 21 visitors in total. Some who had been last year,some who were just passing. The disappointment was that we had …
Well I woke up thinking studio thoughts and was in there sorting at 6am for a couple of hours. The studio is ready, a few surfaces to tidy, oh and some labelling but essentially ready. No photos today – come and see for yourself. A quiet day with the boats but a fe customers and …
So, Thursday. Not a work day, my big free day to get the studio ready or almost or whatever I get to tbh. 8 pictures up and a realisation that I have so much art where can I put it all. Today was a day inspired by invention – two new hanging systems used based …
So,a day on duty at the Purbeck Artisan Yard, Church Street,Wareham – OpenStudio. 45 for PAW and second venue outside my own studio where work can be seen. I removed several pieces last week and today reorganised the bay and added some pieces that are more relevant to a Wareham site. My duty was generally …
A work day at the boats, but a later start because of the tide allowed me to hang two larger 20″ by 16″ pieces. I then hung some more pieces and realised I will have to use two browsers, one for originals and one for prints as I have more work than wall space – …
