I have been playing around with shredding again today as way of relaxing so I have found out. Its been a funny old day what with the odd energy out there with the tube strike, over crowded buses and my ongoing struggle with settling into my job, flat and London....and it's not passed me by that whilst watching 'Pineapple Express' I am stuffing re-sealable plastic bags!

6th June
Finally getting around to updating the blog so I can follow the Artist Log Book format provided. Anything like Captain's log book? Well it is a journey already
Today been working on concepts for the P1 show at Payne Road as part of Bow Arts Trust Open Studios 19th - 21st June 2009. Cycled to source plain plastic bags but with no joy, but bumped into Corinne and she has a source! http://corinne.manifesto-art.co.uk/
Going to walk around the neighbourhood and along the way record the wildlife I encounter. Finally now I am not within a much more natural place my thirst for nature has become a driving force...as per usual weird old mind of mine, miss a thing once its gone! Whilst in Enford I was often over-awed by nature now I am in London at the heart of various estates I am just pleased/relieved when I spot any rose or tree!
Today is the latest opening at The Nunnery 'Olympic Visions' http://www.bowarts.org/thenunnery/index.php?code=42

And at least lunch was in the glorious sunshine on the balcony
And with a fully put together sofa the cushions came out of their bags

Here's some of the amazing view in the meantime...

Corinne Felgate's opening night @ The Heritage Flat, 123 Balfron Tower
Going down in Carradale's lift
Looking up
Ah, the view, such a view!
Started on my postcard response as part of a collaborative postal arts project with artist (& friend) James Aldridge www.jamesaldridge-artist.co.uk/
Working around ideas of nature in the city and finding time to be with nature in a meaningful way, instead of just travelling through 'it' in response to James' piece around the bird and mapping travel. And as life would have it some of the high rise tower blocks in East London have become nesting stops for buzzards and falcons
