The Magic of Blogging

The wonders of living now. I am able to get feedback on work in progress from artists whose opinions I respect. Thank you for your feedback. Oh and it doesn't have to be positive. I am open to constructive criticism.

I am staring to feel better bout these.

This is not a life.

This image is from an exhibition at the New York Public Library. I don't know what else to say.

I have been playing with the jigsaw. I'm making shapes which may have come from the floor plans of buildings.......mosques, romanesque churches etc and over laying them with stolen geometry from islamic patterns. I am interested in the period of cohabitation when Jews Christians and Muslims lived together in Spain and the overlaying of images and religions on specific sights like Hagia Sofia in Istanbul which was once a basilica.

Here it is the result of my first experiment with a saw. First work so don't be too judgemental! I also need to find my photoshop notes to work out how to crop the image.

An Epiphany.

While I was tossing around at 2am last night I had an idea about making some new work. So today as well as wrestling with Leopard, my new version of iLife, photoshop CS4 and running out of downloading capacity on the 12th of the month (how was I to know that loading music back from my iPod to my computer would use it all)I've have taken up carpentry in a bid to outdo Joe the Plumber.
The results will be on show soon if I overcome working difficulties with Leopard, iPhoto, Photoshop CS4 and my longstanding trouble with understanding the workings of a camera.

Don't hold your breath. Relax and admire the picture of Pino below.
