Blogging has been an amazingly useful tool for me over the past twelve months or so. It has enabled me to get feedback on work that would never have seen the light of day and I have made contact with some wonderful people.
Most importantly though it has let me test myself and what I think about what my art should or can be. Saying something out loud (to the world!) has meant that I have had to really think things through.
Now feels the right time though to have an intense period of making. It feels right to stop blogging during this time. I think that it fits in well with some parts of my creative process but I almost feel that I will have very little to say (even to myself!). Blogging has helped me figure out what I need to do. Now I just need to do it. So rather than struggle to write interesting things I want to go away and come back with something exciting to talk about.
So thanks to everyone who has read and commented and good luck to all of you that are working on your own creative stuff! I expect that I will be back blogging towards the end of the year and I hope to have lots of exciting new work to share. There may be updates about “the Ebony Tower” project on Chantals Blog from time to time too.
If you want to get in touch you can still find me on facebook or email me daytonadean@hotmail.com.
cheers
