This Week's Visual Journal
Week 26 of 2024
Hey folks! Happy Saturday!
Here are the highlights of my week: great food, geraniums and being in the pool with Ezra.
Sharing 2 videos, the first with me explaining a little context and the second is a Timelapse of the process. I let watercolours dry and then added ink work. I was keen to leave some white negative space and simplify the spread a little.
I hope this finds you well xx
The getting and not getting of arts grants is painful stuff. I’ve applied for half a dozen here in Tasmania over the years and got none despite having gone properly through the process and made the phone calls, taken the advice, got letters from supporters (and then had to tell them it was all for nothing). In the end I decided never to apply again and sometimes still send a big virtual raspberry noise through the ether to the grant bodies. I’ve gone my own way instead. There is heaps of creative juice out there that has nothing to do with these people and the quickest glance at your lovely Substack shows you have an abundance of ideas and forward motion. Keep going!
I love your visual journals 🧚
