Creating

I'm started my blog on Tumblr but am not really that keen so I thought I'd give blogger a try.

This is a blog dedicated to my art. My hope is that it will keep me creating, growing and developing as a an artist. I've no formal art training but do have a genuine love of drawing, painting and just generally creating.

I find that sometimes my art suffers when stress in my work life increases. This is ironic as drawing is a big de-stresser for me! It just seems that when the going gets tough sometimes I push away the very thing that I need; I imagine a lot of people do that.

I've set myself a project to keep myself producing. I want to create 30 pieces of art work. I'm using titles of albums as stimulus. Slowly, I'm working through the UK top 30 album chart as of the 20th of January 2011. Currently I've completed 8 pieces which I'll share here.

I've also got a great deal of artwork that I've produced over the last few years which I'll share and blog about.
