It has been a 'colourful' week. Shimelle has focused on colour in her 3rd week of Explore. I've not done any of the prompts as yet, I'm saving them for when I have more time so that I can enjoy them and not feel under pressure. However, I did put together my Creative Color Challenge which was to create a colour spectrum using any medium. Since my workspace is still inaccessible I chose to do this on my computer, I was pleased to be able to use some of my photos. I knew they'd come in useful one day!
Do you remember I have complained recently that I frequently can't leave comments and am having lots of problems with Blogger? Well it seems I am not alone. I was hugely relieved to see this post by Sarah at Blog Guidebook, so if you are also having difficulties it may be worth checking this out. It looks like I need to delete lots in order to identify the authentication cookie that is causing the problem. My computer needs a good detox, so perhaps I need to allocate some time and do this. Then I need to do the same with the house! Working full time and trying to organise my new creative space means everything is sadly neglected. But s-l-o-w-l-y headway is being made. Then it will be time to start creating again, I can't wait!
Finally, I had a wonderful day out on Friday with friends. We went to Charleston House in Sussex, home of the Bloomsbury Set. I confess, before my visit I knew very little about the artists or their style. Unfortuantly we could not take photos inside the house, but imagine my surprise when I visited Julia Kirk's post on my return. A part from the fact that Julia had visited Masham in North Yorkshire, a place I LOVE, she showed photos of a wonderful studio called ArtisOn. And inside they had a fireplace decorated in the style of the Bloomsbury Set, complete with a painting above it. I must have learned something from my visit as this artwork jumped out at me and I immediately recognised it!
I'll be back soon with the name of the lucky person who will receive Painted Pages. What are you waiting for? Post your comment now!
