I thought this might happen.

Just as I attempt to come to terms with my inconsistency I get consistent.

I can’t really plan what I’m going to make. I have to wait for it to arrive. The good side of this is that I make my best images this way. The bad side? I’m all over the place.

This jumping from place to place has happened irl too, but for me, the interesting thing is that those leaps are getting smaller and smaller until they seem to be disappearing. That may be to do with my knees but more likely it’s down to finding what I wanted. My partner, my home, a few friends, art, photography and woodworking. And Sobriety, of course.

I like the colours and feel of this image and want to continue growing work out of the previous one as is possible with digital art. So, again, that’s what I’ve done here.

I’m happy with this piece because it reminds me of certain things and how I felt when I saw them. These are associations that would only spoil your responses, so I won’t bother with a ‘story’.

I wonder if it’s only when one looks back at everything they’ve done that a decision can be made as to ‘what that was all about’.

I’m going to stop calling myself an artist. I have not got the drive or desire to market myself. Isn’t that what search engines are for. In terms of sales and collectors, it feels like you are scrolling through everything like a loon. I am adding searchable words, drawing attention to the language in my descriptions at T.S. fucking Eliot levels of literacy and we STILL can’t find one another.

Let fate decide and not the algorithm of some wretch sucking off my content.

Blimey. See what I mean, though?

Cheers

Michael.

also, there’s only one of these, hand signed. A high quality giclee print on archival paper - in a dimension of your choice (altho that has to be smaller than A1 paper size)
