Just a wee Update

Journal Entry: Thu Feb 8, 2007, 7:55 AM
  • Mood: Optimism
  • Listening to: Kate Bush
  • Reading: House of Leaves
  • Watching: Blood Diamond
Well I thougth it was about time I revisited the world of Deviantart - It has been a seriously long time since I have been here!! I had problems with the new update and life just kind of took over but I really hope to get back into the way of things soon even if it is not as regular as before.

I unfortunately had to delete all the lovely messages and images of the folk I devwatch as there were just so many of them!! (at least a few thousand) but I shall be visiting your galleries to see what you have been up to and I really do thank you for all the lovely comments I have received which I cannot return. As I am now admiring so many peoples work, and again you are all so prolific, I am afraid I shall not be able to comment all the time, but I will try and keep up and make the odd contribution when I can.

Life has been a bit funny recently and I need to do a serious update on my own gallery too so I shall be posting new work soon. I have a couple of really exciting projects and exhibitions coming up which I shall keep you updated with too. Unfortunatley all film work is on hold at the moment as a long standing chronic back injury has reared its ugly head again so I can't really be lifting tonnes of costumes and standing freezing my butt off in muddy fields. Instead I am concentrating more on teaching and producing my own work at the moment so we shall see how that goes.

Anyway I wish you all well and am looking forward to becoming re-acquanted with your wonderul work and galleries. Take care

that sounds great! it's going to be pretty busy here for a bit too! my daughter has just started secondary school this week, and i work at the university and the students will all be back shortly which will leave me pulling out my hair, undoubtedly! it's one of the busiest times at work for me at the beginning of the term! but yes, when things slow down for you, let me know...and we can meet up on a saturday for coffee or something! it sounds like fun!

Hey Tracy - I am so rude!!! Been meaning to reply for ages but just a bit snowed under at the moment. I am in Sneinton - not far from the icerink and hockley. I would love to meet for a coffee at some point. Next 2 weeks are stupidly busy for me (costuming a film - got a week to make an alien costume - slightly worried) but then I should have a wee bit more free time. I'll note you my details. =)
