Hanging about. The Sequel

While I was tidying today, I unwrapped a significant artwork:  Milo's first painting.  

It needed to go up and the place for it was a no-brainer.  So I whipped out the hammer drill and behold...

The first picture is hung.

Before:

After: 

Milo's painting is on the left.  The painting to the right of
the clock is a watercolour study by Ma of which I am
particularly fond.

This probably isn't the final configuration, of course, but at least we're on our way.  And the hanging hoodoo is banished.

And for sake of demonstrating, this is where my workspace started, and where its going.

Before:

After:

I've thrown a few things on the shelves without
a clue, a plan, or indeed, a roadmap. 

Stay tuned for the next evolutionary phase, Charles Darwin.

Workspace. Part I

Gestation comes to an end as Peter Builder gives birth to my workspace.


The shelves were being erected this morning with only a small amount of trouble but St Patrick's Day (boozing) halted progress until tomorrow.  I live in hope the aftereffects of this afternoon's celebrations don't impact negatively on tomorrow's advancements.


I suspect the next step will involve me and a paintbrush which might actually have to wait until next Tuesday when Milo's at kinder for the full day.


My Ikea Varde unit will be slotted into the cavity underneath.

And then I can finally get busy deciding how the space is going to work and how I can work in the space.


After two years at Riverside with my artistic life in boxes, all around me, but completely inaccessible, this is a heavenly thing.


So excited.
