Art production has been somewhat slowed this month by
various family commitments (eg: helping one son renovate and another remodel
his garden), as well as Easter and a short holiday in Hobart, Tasmania.
My husband being my husband the holiday was not a time for
relaxing but rather a time to walk and walk and walk and then, just for a
little variety, to ride. My thighs were stiff from hours of over-strenuous
clambering over rocks and bracing against steep descents.
On the art front, we did however go (ride) to the stunningly
positioned Mona gallery in Hobart while on holiday and I took some interesting
photographs of the reflection of surrounding landscaping and cars off the
stainless steel entrance (see below). I also took close up photos of “leafy” things while
walking and clambering at Hartz Mountains and Mt Field National parks outside
Hobart, to extend the variety of “photo references” I have stored on my
computer for the current theme, and which I will use to provide inspiration for
art works in the near future (see below).
Remodelling a garden, if not art is also enjoyably creative (and hopefully
pleasing to the eye) but the renovating, especially the patching and sanding of
walls, is just plain hard work.
