Someday, the altered art you make today will be
old, faded, falling apart, and someone else will salvage the bits and use them
in new altered art.It's the best that any piece of art can hope for

WOYWW .. been AWOL!!




Hello everybody - anyone remember me? I haven't posted for ages, lots of reasons why - stuff going on, head not been in the right place and probably most relavant to the blog world - a severe lack of mojo.That was until I started an online course with the the very talented Mr Andy Skinner (do NOT say he is the UK's Tim Holtz cos he may slap you and he isn't normally a violent man) 

So I can totally and completely blame him for the state of my desk which is full of paint and stuff Lots of projects in various stage stages of completion

 Doesn't it look fun??? It only started on Friday night and I have learnt so much already - and we have another 7 weeks to go, I can safely say I am having a ball and my life is back on track as far as arty stuff is concerned!

(PS - we are using alot of odd stuff in this course but the Febreeze bottle you can see is nothing to do with the course, that was to do with Marzie thinking it would be a good idea to roll in some fox poo!!)

    Great, interesting desk and I'm hooked. Following to see what you produce in your on-line course. Love the pages in your previous post and your Octopede story book - such stand-out colours.

    Amazing how a course can get you back on track. I think it just helps you focus onthe things you need to, in order to get going at it.

    Hi Nicks, Andy Skinner is amazing, pleased he rejuvenated your mojo! Great box. Saw an A.S. demonstration about a year ago by Chronicles of Kaos, brilliant, had already bought and stroked - ahem - used some A.S. stamps! Saving up for an online demo, but doubt my dongle will cope with it :-/ ! x
