November 2016











19th: Had a message pop on th phone yesterday. As I can only ever seem to be spammed I thought best just quickly delete it. Yurns out it was deposit from Art Lovers 1932! Apparently I had won a prize in their annual art competition. owing to a variety of reasons I was completely clueless. I had entered and then life just took over. It's the second time that this had happened. First time was in 2008 with the Sasol New Signatures.

15th: had a quick squiz of my entry for the 2nd. My evaluation? Rubbish, and so have edited.

2nd : Well whats been happening? Had a trip over to the UK. Mostly spent my time in a kitchen. Managed to escape for a weekend to London. Went and saw the Turner prize finalist's. What did I think? Ummmmmmm, what a load of Kak. I can only suggest that this reaction is because I am getting old, and plus I have spent too much time in the Sun , This of course means that my brain has been fried to the point of which I can no longer lie to myself by finding some deeper meaning in something that is patently not there.

Anyway being working on a portrait of Moira Forjaz. It has taken some months to organise but I have finally been able to get there. The above pic is just a little snap of the final images.
