From This to This



I reached the point where I felt completely uncomfortable with the first version of Adele because it was too regular or rigid or something. I left Adele out in the rain for a while then scrubbed the paint off, restretched the paper and started again. The beginnings are above.

Artists I like

Artists that I stumbled upon wandering through blogs and that I really like are

Here I am

Here I am
hidden within myself
opaque yet transparent
A pillar on the horizon
standing in the wind
arms by my side
clenched hands
in waiting
yet still, waiting
for
the moment of epiphany

Back from Holidays

Well we are back from holidays. We've driven over 6000 kilometres and bent the rims on 4 wheels on the car. We got as far north as Townsville. We swam with fish. An emu was very indecisive about committing suicide on our car, therefore adrenaline flowed generously. We caught up with friends. We saw wonderful places. We soaked hot artesian water. We saw bushfires from a huge sandblow. We saw a dead sunfish on a beach. And other stuff.

Ecetera

Climbing roses like reaching for the sun Persist
