Eiffel Tower

On a recent visit to Paris, we visited the Eiffel Tower twice. We sat at the bottom in the Champs du Mars and watched the sunset behind the Tower. I have many photos and have been trying to work these into an art piece. I want to reflect the peacefulness yet exhilarating feel it gave me. I am a huge fan of sunsets and have been working on a painted series, however being in London I am yet to build a artists kit to create these. I have been sketching and creating mini watercolours (I have never used watercolour before, tips are appreciated). I thought I would post one of the photos from the base.

Career in Art

I have just stolen this link from a friend, Joy. It is a brief article on why people don't succeed in art. I for one can honestly say, I think this bloody writer was stalking me and documented my past 10 years!

Time to get a bit serious eh?

Londons burning

I have now located to London, UK. Just in time for the London Riots, which I have moved to the suburb, Camberwell which is smack bang between Peckham and Brixton.

My partner, Clive, and I are living above a pub which he works at and I am just a slack arse without a job. Stating to get a bit bored but I am trying to get a role I want and like not just another shitty casual role! I want something that will put me in the right direction when I eventually head back to Australia. Ho-hum just keep waiting I guess.

I will be doing some video edits to get a portfolio up here and some more drawings too as I was stupid enough not to do this BEFORE I left Australia.

Also I have a travel blog on wordpress... hey they have an easy to use iPhone app and blogger couldn't compete!
