I've done what I said I would and produced a number of collagraphs to start printing up at uni. I've had my first tutorial with Stuart Whipps for my final module and he has said okay to do the processing but I need to underpin it with context. I am currently thinking about the things that I return to again and again for this. My programme needs to be uploaded by Fri 14 Oct so only a week to get that sorted.
In the meantime, and what I've been doing since my last post, my mother-in-law has been extremely ill in Milton Keynes - spent her 90th birthday in hospital so my sister-in-law is over from Australia; and a long time friend has died very sadly after a three year illness. I've also been to London, to Hartlepool and to Anglesey for holidays. Had a new bathroom and loo and have had a bit of a Stanley Spencer fix going to Sandham and Cookham and again to Compton Verney to see the garden paintings which on balance turn out to be his lesser works albeit very interesting.
Trying to up my photographic skills so am doing an evening course based at the Botanical Gardens.
