On my blog not only do I like to fill you in on all the arty news and views, but give you some insight into me and how I juggle a busy full time job, social life and arty business. This week is going to be a challenge, I can feel it!! I booked the day off today to drive up to Leicestershire where I went to school and my family live, as I had to attend a bridesmaid dress fitting for my friend Jen who is getting married at the end of August. Whilst I wasn't looking forward to that, it was actually ok and over very quickly. I then had to brave the motorway and delightful rainy weather back to Cheltenham for the days bigger challenge, sorting my builders out!
For those of you in the know we moved into a new house last December and whilst it's lovely, it's fair to say the ride has not been an easy one. I won't bore you with the details, but all I need to say is that 8 months on we still have a list of about 50 things which need sorting. Today, after finally tracking down the new site manager I may have had a breakthrough and they have assured me all will be resolved by next Tuesday - it's ambitious, but fingers crossed.
Despite being a little bit tired after my roadtrip and Monday adventures, I managed to settle in for an afternoon of painting as it poured with rain outside! The great news is that I have finished the 3 panel painting I was nattering on about the other day, I finished it off with detail in a darker egg shell blue and silver and it's looking GREAT! In fact, I like it so much I have eyed it up for my lounge wall! I've been wanting to do something new for ages for our lounge, but haven't had the time. This inadvertantly could be it! Of course, I will have to take it to Cheltenham Art in Park next week as I am short of new work and if it sells then great...but if not...it's mine..he he!
Pics soon, I still haven't replaced my stolen camers!!
