Glencoe. Never got there this year. But next May.. the trip is happening. Felt I should print today ( this is a photo of my print). Next year.. tomorrow onwards.. more printing, book making.. photography. Alongside the painting. To do that, I'll need to step back from full time work.. part time beckons. That'll give me 4 days a week. Can't wait! Have a great NYE and a Happy 2025!

Reflections on the year. Firstly, I'm posting this whilst listening to episode 158. Sometimes, you hear other people express thoughts and feelings that mirror so closely ones own internal dialogue that it's uncanny. There are some absolutely marvelous conversations expressed on social media that do hit home. They are rare and valuable nuggets in amongst the wall of noise out in the world. I need that feeling of not being too 'odd' for my own good. Thank you Kendra. So.. I want to end this year with colour and light. I've made progress as an artist this year.. whilst not totally abandoning my photography voice. I've vastly exceeded 10,000 hours learning my craft ( and it is a craft ) in this medium. I'm a long way away from that with paint. I may never get there in the time I have available, but I'll never stop .. never get off the bus. I've become a grandfather this year. Life begins a new and my life also keeps beginning in its way, creatively. I'm thankful for each days opportunity. Have a great New Year one and all. Whoever you are and wherever you are.

Christmas Eve 2024. In Berlin with my daughters, my granddaughter and my son in law. Yesterday, someone in the family passed away. That person loved Christmas. I've always found it overwhelming on one level or another. I process things quietly, internally. People mistake that for indifference or distaste. That's not true. I value the core idea of it.. and to quote a line from Dickens in A Christmas Carol ..the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys..

What lies beyond. I don't know where my creative efforts will lead.. beyond the pure enjoyment of the journey ( and it's struggle is part of that). But somewhere in the distance.. feels a destination that beckons.

Mother. As another family member is going to miss Christmas this year it seems... It brings it home just how much it's never, ever the celebration it once was. If your family is together.. grasp the moment and see beyond the tinsel to what really is a gift this year.

Untitled. Someone threw out two old IKEA frames. Glass not plastic glazing. So I printed up something to go in them. This being one image. Stuck it in my kitchen. People have been telling me to put my work up at home.. so I'm getting some large pastels landscapes framed for the living room.. I think it's a good idea. It's amazing how much better work looks when presented well.. be it framed or printed well and bound into catalogs/ book form. All those images that only ever exist as data transmitted on a screen.. people don't know what they truly have or how it stands until it's a physical manifestation.

This is what I feel like .. quite often actually. Dangling by tenuous threads whilst being stared at by total strangers. Got to be fun though.. doing that tethered bouncing thing..
