Other matters

My son has just turned 18, and is enjoying his Music Performance course. He's done several successful gigs now, and seems to take it all in his stride. My daughter is reluctantly studying for GCSEs, but also putting most of her energy into Music (and changing her hairstyles!) Everything else stays the same for now.

End of Autumn term





So what can I tell you? My course is still going well, and I have a clear idea in my mind of what I need to do for my final project/exhibition. My theme is Art and Anthropology - It's about the ancient skills which have shaped what we are today. I'm going to work with the materials which ancient people used so that people will understand why they mean so much to me. The above are just a selection of my exploratory pieces, using flint, beeswax, charcoal and stitch. Everyone's tired of the smell of beeswax - except me!
