Adventuring

Six weeks today, I will fly from Glasgow to Toronto.  I will spend 12 days pottering around various places before I fly from Montreal to St. Johns in New Foundland (via a stop in Halifax) for a long over due re-union with the very talented Audrey Hurd.  I will spend between 6-8 weeks adventuring around parts of Eastern Canada, but apart from what I have already mentioned I have no firm plans which is exciting/terrifying.

My planned route (maybe) 2129k/1323m (give or take a few).

If anyone has been to Toronto/Montreal or any places in between and has any recommendations for me please drop me a line.

Thoughts


Moleskines and spiders


I got a new moleskine as a present and I have begun slowly filling it.   I have spent a lot of time thinking and writing and thinking and writing some more, something I haven't done properly since mid-April.  It is difficult to be in the creative zone when I lack a studio space as well as working 5 days a week, but I am getting there and a few ideas have begun to form and take shape.

Here is a SPECIAL BONUS photo of the 7 legged spider that was living in my flat for a wee while.  He seemed pretty content just chilling in various spots on my staircase for a week there, but Ive not seen him in a while. 




Badges again

My badges got a mention on Little Oddities.  You should have a look round over there, its really quite lovely.

Graduating etc.

So that's it.  I have graduated and my four years at art school has officially come to an end.


I could write 1000 sentimental words about the last four years, but I will avoid that.  Instead, I think I should concentrate on more important subjects such as my amazing graduation shoe and sock combo.  I doubt anyone had anything half as impressive on their feet that day.

  
Oooooft!
