End of 2nd Year... roll on 3rd Year

The time has flown by since the Easter holidays and so farewell 2nd year - so soon. The studio is cleared out and my shed and conservatory are in overflow. I had not realised until now how timeconsuming general admin is in regards to finishing paintings, ensuring they are labelled correctly and the finish is made good. I also had not realised how reliant I am on the computer for recording everything. Time-consuming to say the least but in the end an absolute life-saver. So, the professional practice box is complete. Thanks to good old Albelli books, all are accounted for. The statement is written up and the page listing contents is done. Just need to make sure it is handed in to Gordon Brennan's office for before noon on Monday.

Wednesday afternnon saw us on a guided tour round four artist led studio/gallery spaces - 'superclub, Whitespace, Embassy and Rhubaba. A wake up call if ever into reality post ECA. Need to keep making contacts and network and all sorts of things so I do not slip under the radar when I graduate.

Never been so cold... freezing studios, nearly all without access to direct light. Not a fan of that.
