Sketchy 143

…was sitting in front of my drawing board struggling to concentrate on painting because I was sure there was something else that I’d told myself that I needed to do before lunch…

….laundry….check….

….prepare and start crockpot….check….

….dishes….check…

…new long-covid busting breathing exercises at the correct time intervals…..check….

….scan pages of sket…..shit…..

….aaaand…..done….

…(thing at the bottom is a “mind-map”…alleged thought focuser that I toyed with because I assumed clarity of mind was something I’d lost to covid…..

…you start by putting something at the centre and jotting down your immediate thoughts and connecting with your other thoughts….

….er…you should probably google it as my explanation is of something I tried and dispensed with before Xmas!…..

…stay tuned for where that leads)….

Even Further Adding

Stuff I Finished Last Year

…alternatively titled “Stuff I Spent All Of Last Year Making”….

…”but was too sick to finish, frame and photograph till now”

…the frames are 865mm x 620mm…

…they (all 10 of them) are in “matched” pairs…

…some of the photos aren’t great because – long-covid-brain….

…but hopefully they’ll give you the idea….

…now to build up enough steam to maybe organise an exhibition…

…(…er…with long-covid-brain….who am I kidding?!!?…might take me a long while….)…

…(but stay tuned just in case)….
