much better now, thanks! cycled to sue's pilates class at yogascentials on lygon st this morning, now I'm all stretched and floppy, 3pm and just getting it together to do some work. Had a moment of excitement just then, resucing Chloe from her lassie adventure barking at another dog down the road, since Peter brown - our favourite handyman in his nailbelt - who is fixing the side gate left the front gate open.
Back now, ready to take on the universe with the symphony of bridges. Enough of all this peripheral chatter time to really get focused and down to business.
Being an artist with no business sense, I'm just going to have to borrow someone else's for a while. Luckily have been offered some expertise on release strategies for the project, and am about to write up my goals and 'desired outcomes'!! You better believe if I desire them, they are gonna come, sooner or later, one way or another!

Once I get my confidence and energy back, there's one very determined, stubborn and resourceful person behind this screen. Just heard a lovely story from a friend at Emer's birthday dinrks - meyers place bar, very funky, lots of great people I hadn't seen in ages - anyway, Ward tells me an artist friend of his just got back from 4 months in India, where she'd been sent (and cashed up) by her gallery to be inspired and make work. This is the fun part, she came back and gave a talk on why she couldn't make art in India. Not sure of the reasons, but I love it! Another artist I know collects the dust from museum and gallery floors wherever he visits. Also space dust, whic apparently falls to earth at the rate of one particle per square metre per day. or something like that.
So bridges don't seem so ludicrously esoteric after all, do they!!!????!!
