We’re on the starting blocks and I’ve heard that I’ll be showing at The Hub in Church Lane, Upper Beeding this year. It’s a new venue for us but I know it quite well, having lurked there with a sketchbook … Continue reading Steyning Arts Trail 2022
I’ve mentioned the Artivive app before – it’s an app that calls up video hosted on their site and linked to a specific image. For now, it’s mostly used in galleries where lighting and connectivity are generally good. I used it for my contribution to our lane’s Advent Window fundraiser (for the local school) whereby one window a night is ‘unveiled’ and then stays lit for the rest of Christmas, which meant viewing in the dark from the garden in a village where mobile signals aren’t always great. It was a big test and it passed! Artivive has a torch … Continue reading Artivive in the wild!

This year, for the first time, our lane is doing Advent windows to raise money for extras for our local school. The way it works is that each of us – or as many as possible – in the lane ‘unveils’ a decorated window right up to December 24th and they all stay on till 12th night.

After Drawing Skills1 came home to roost a day or so ago, Practice of Painting and Understanding Painting Media have also done a flit and been rehomed here. So now there’s a flock of replicated pages and headings perched up … Continue reading More blog migrations
If this blog suddenly looks larger, bigger, rounder, and more populated with stuff, it’s because I have imported my three Level 1 (HE4) OCA blogs now that they’re safely in the bag at a progressive 56% (Drawing Skills 1), 61% … Continue reading Blog supernova!
We knew that though, didn’t we? Get yourself ‘adopted’ by a gallery or a collector and your work will sky rocket in price. You might have to be dead though, which would at least mean you weren’t kept on a … Continue reading “The Art Market is a Scam”
