Now with everything bagged and boxed, my worldly goods spread between 3 addresses I reach the end of another chapter of my life. The new studio is spacious and well lit, most of all, it is soundproofed with ancient walls and modern Fire doors that are a struggle to open.
My time now ended at Stonham allows brief reflection on the journey that I have made over the past 20 months, so rapid has it been that there has hardly been a moment when I can remember that I was not working blindly and not knowing where it would lead, while caution was thrown to the wind while I went in search for the artist within the point where I felt that I was wearing the wrong hat never arrived and only now am I able to see the full fruits of my labour.
Ending on a high note, shortlisted for a personal achievement award, a level of artistic ability that has taken me to a level whereby I would feel comfortable exhibiting at a national level, engaging a business manager to handle my affairs with a corporate funder in the United States, a good rapport with the local media and so many supportive friends and colleagues that, for sure, my mailing list will be larger than ever before come christmas.
My computor closes down this weekend and takes a well earned rest ready for its move on sunday, the rest being appreciated more by my eyes I am sure.
A new era begins and a new direction and step in my blog, that of an artist of renown and accomplishment with thanks to my support workers, friends, long suffering girlfriend and of course with acknowledgment to God who first showed me the path all those months ago.
until then
Peace to all
andrew
