A portfolio of doubt
Or should that be I doubt I’ll ever finish my online portfolio
I had intended finishing my own portfolio many Moons ago but one thing gets in the way of another and I must admit I get easily distracted – especially by pencils and shiny toys. Anyway, I have received an increased number of messages asking when it would be completed. I was especially pleased to receive the email asking if I was going for the longest running holding page in history as the coming soon page did have a few cobwebs on it
So, this week, having lost my voice thanks to a virus and being unable to stand up without watching the World spin about my head (that same fun virus), I decided it was time to put the finishing touches to the portfolio.
It still has a long way to go, and I have loads of images yet to sort out and upload, but it is now online and useable. The good part about this for me at least is I can get back to using the blog part of my site as somewhere to write and ruminate without posting page after page of photographs
I am still looking for a good way of getting some of the images as purchasable items, but it’s not something I really want to rush into and start churning out poor quality pieces – when I find a solution I’ll mention it here – if I remember.
So, click here to go to the portfolio or click the relevant option in the menu above.
A page from the book
A little bit more on the airship theme, after this one it’s a more serious bit of watercolour work on the agenda
So, following on from this piece I wondered how the airship would work if it were included into a children’s book, the only way to find out was to rough up a page from the book
Some text missing…
This morning I decided to rattle off a quick watercolour, it was another standing stone painting to go with a short story I had in mind. So, after splashing some paint about for a while I decided to write the text to go with it…. in hindsight I should have made a few notes as to what the story was about other than a bloke standing with a flaming torch in front of a large standing stone at night. Maybe the story will come back to me when I least expect it, or perhaps it’s really better lost for good anyway
