The honeymoon is over

[devi]

I've done a painting I don't like. I think it didn't work because I was trying to paint something I could see very clearly in my head, rather than just starting to paint and seeing what happened. Oh well:






I do like this one, though:





And now, in Good Art news, who wants to see this Antony Gormley exhibition with me? It's in London, so it'd have to be a weekend for me, but it's on from 17th May till 19th August.

The second one is gorgeous! I have friended you, even though I'm astonished that you want to continue the acquaintance given quite how epically trashed I was during our conversation on Saturday ;)

Our conversation was like an island of coherence in the midst of all the trashedness! Well, your half of it was anyway.

Friending you back. And congratulations on the exhibition news. V exciting.

What, you two hadn't met?

I know, it's strange, isn't it?

Perhaps more like an archipelago? I remember that I kept returning to my body and being surprised to discover that I was making MOUTH WORDS. Apparently my autopilot is reasonably good at faking coherence, but we really should have a conversation some time where I'm actually present for all of it ;)

Thankyou! Any chance of you making it to mine as well as the Gormley? Unfortunately they don't overlap...

I'd very much like to see yours! What night of the week is your opening night? (Not that it'll be so much of an issue in the summer mostly-holidays, mind.)

Heh, yeah, "mouth words".

Wednesday the 22nd :)
