Myspace ???

Myspace is not letting me in so the blog is here.

Am worried about the hair in my dentists picture will send him a text and sort it out i think. On the bus this morning there was a review of our exhibition in the metro ,I didnt get a mention which was a bit of a dissapointment butmaybe it will help with getting people to visit .Had a slightly unproffesional moment when the cafe staff nxt door all went off to wales not telling anyone and we could not get the keys anymore. Wasnt open for a day but a spare set have been aquired .

Have been getting a lot of work in the tate and am tired was difficult to get up this morning didnt get out of bed until 7. AM wondering about my career again is strange that some people are so keen and others have absolutly no intrest.

Told John who was over from china about jenny saville chris offil and anne magill. I kind of like the idea that me saying somthing here in a pub might have an impact in china and a painter i admire will be showen there .But thats all a bit of a dream , still would be good maybe i could ask for a catolog. (i dont get them here at tate like the other staff as i dont have a contract).
Wonder how the fortune cards are getting on, had a difficult member of the public yesterday who staired alot and told me about snow lepoards. It quite upset me actualy as him insisting this painting of snow lepoards was amazing didnt realy make much sence to me as i couldnt see it and didnt know it. But still he told me that it was realy propper painting for 12 minutes, make you glad that you earn just above the minumum wage.

Heres what i did on saturday



Am quite pleased there are flaws in it but its a great improvement on what ive been doing for the past few months. This new way of doing toes is better was tricky to get and its not all there yet but will show this to old terry on monday and see what he says.



Heres tuesdays without the edit. Was very pleased with the feet on this one.

intresting

well worth a look

usless myspace blog

have put this here until myspace functions again is the 3rd time i have tried to type it.


what a tuesday
Did a bit of work on a commission this morning and it hasnt started with confidence so i think its going to drag a little. How ever after eating lots of pasta to help frighten myself in to having to buy new and larger trousers i went and did a bit of life drawing.



The computer just threw a wobbler and lost the whole blog after here am not amused. should have knowen

Anyway Besides having to deface it so its nice for people who dont like full frontal male im quite pleased. Terry said i was a bit to kind with his knob but i said you should always romantise the sitter. What im so pleased about is the feet there actualy ok . There not going to win an award but there ok which is quite unlike every drawing ive done for the past 2 years. Am quite impressed with me (theres the modesty again).

more doodles

quite like to look of these two am off to bed now so no in depth analisis now.

good night

get a grip

was quite odd life drawing this morning ,had the usual problems with hands and feet but ive noticed that when i start i grope at the model a lot and its not sure firm and confident. Is funny that as your drawing whats infront of you. Noticed it last week whe i was doing the models wrist and this week i had trouble with her hips which realy should not be a problem. I wonder if theres to much thinking and if it should just be instinctive but then im not much of a planner as my driving instructor tells me. Not sure if thats correct just might not be a coherant plan often when i play chess its start and see what happens rather than game plan go. Intresting how charicter has such an impact on what you do.

pastels

Satyrday morning am thinking of doing more pastel work as have a big pile of drawings under the bed and maybe these will be easier to get rid of. Cant see anyone wanting line drawings.
