Burning the old dressing table
We suddenly decided it was time to move and everything (except the Terex Truck that I was working on at the time) was abandoned as we redecorated the house and looked for another one, which fortunately we found, further North, about 80 Kms east of Port Pirie, a lovely old stone homestead with a wing added on, facing south and perfect for my studio. We move in on 31 July but, in the meantime, while the Mannum house is on the market, are living at Blinman in the Flinders Ranges, with no phone and the nearest reasonable shop 110 kms away.
Having hesitated for a very long time about where to go with galleries I was approached a few days ago by a new gallery in Singapore, associated with top range galleries in Hong Kong and Sydney. Maybe!
The studio at Blinman (the third bedroom) faces south, looking across open land to the village. Painting in there is such a pleasure! I am currently working on a commission, with another one planned after that, but hope to finish the busker sometime in the middle, having worked on it, on and off, for a very long time. There is also another wall and truck painting that is itching to get itself started. Soon.
