stress, riots and Spain!

I don't like to get personal in my blog but i have had the week from hell and its only Tuesday. First my hoover picks a fight and damages my foot so im limping away, i then have to wait an hour on a bus and walk home with numb feet. 
Then today only to have to deal with a hormonal teenager giving me the abuse of the day. there is no need for the stress i am under right now.

But i was in the heart of art Spain on yet again a stressful week away, Well Barcelona to add more detail i wasn't sure what to expect actually but the buildings were awesome, even one with eyeballs coming out if it and walls as windows all awesome, the more interesting thing that i saw though was the protests and sit in that were going on there.

One was students, protesting the rise in their fees. The other "general" hate for the government as the women at the receptionist told me which she then told me it was the norm there. So my questioning, was not a shock to her and showed i was a total tourist

So after my guild dog pieces of art i may look at this for a piece or set of work. This is only when my current state gets a lot more happy!

I went to narnia and came back with a tiny easel and batman bed covers..

i had a day off work today so i cleaned my art storage. This was my nightmare but i did however find everything i could possibly want or need.

Since i have done most of my paper work i can now start work so in doing this i cleaned to see what i had and what i needed to buy which well i don't need a thing. My plan is to produce slightly larger work than I'm used to producing because it is possible to do so.

So what did i find in my storage!



I could do something with beads and wire! 

or print like i'm used to!

get adventurous and make clothes again.

get with the times and do digital work! Ha.

work with my many pencils.

but id have to work on my old rags and batman bed covers.

Because ink goes everywhere

and my easel is only Kirsten sized.


so i could do anything that i want because well i have everything apart from my own studio which would be awesome to have! and a bigger easel instead of a joke tiny easel.
