Well back home properly now and all of life hiccup's as usual have appeared. I got home to a computer collapse which has only just been fixed, but all is ok now. I have a super computer wizard friend, thanks.

 

France was amazing, I learnt so much. Especially about the use of photography and painting and how they work together. Water colour and inks seemed to work well on the vista type scenes, the water colours when it was warmer; because of the dying time. The photos worked better for record shots and close up details. That worked well even if the rule wasn't totally rigid, an exception to that rule might appear here in a few days.

 

Liz and myself came home with about 55/60 inks, 12 water-colours, and many photos to be edited down to about 20 images; a satisfying volume of work . It all just needs putting together into volume form, the digital record is almost complete.

 

The MIND exhibition is behind me now, as are a couple of commissions, so for a week or so, maybe it will be allowed to take life a tad slower and relax. The last few days have been spent working on the tree project, I always enjoy that.
