A Much Earlier Weekly Diary
This diary (which used to be in a separate blog called Simple Simon’s Diary) is exactly seven years old; a time when I supplemented my income from painting sales with occasional work in an art shop and many evenings a … Continue reading
Art Diary: Week Ending 25th January
19/01/2014 My wife and I went out for a family meal. Either side of this I spent the time making radical changes to my blogs, internet and artistic identity. I have decided to phase out many of my blogs and … Continue reading

Weekly Diary
19/01/2014 June and I sneaked out of the bagpipes house with snail shells on our backs (mine had a clockwise spiral and hers the reverse – I joked she would get younger as she walked up the road). We crossed … Continue reading
Art Diary: Week Ending 18th January
12/01/2014 A typical Sunday with a bit of gardening in the morning (not nearly enough however – although I am getting my enthusiasm back for all things botanical), out with my wife for dinner and then working on the computers … Continue reading

Weekly Diary

05/01/2014 For once a morning without rain and with some relief I spent most of it in the garden. The afternoon was spent on paperwork and necessary business activities and the evening was spent blogging. 06/01/2014 I completed the main … Continue reading

Weekly Diary
05/01/2014 I tended the flowers in my head before going out into the quasi-mechanical garden of at least one reality holding a spanner instead of a spade – I was told by a friend trapped in a black and white … Continue reading
Art Diary: The First Days Of 2014
01/01/2014 My wife, June, and I went out for a family meal so there was little time for work apart from hurried blogging at the very end of the day and a bit of digital painting at the very beginning. … Continue reading
My Diary: The First Days of 2014
01/01/2014 I got up like water flowing uphill, touched the octopus ink stalactites in the echoing cavern of early morning and then crept downstairs as my only remembered dream eclipsed a far distant star (it was at least the other … Continue reading
Art Diary: The Last Days Of 2013
29/12/2013 Another slow day: I went out after an unhurried breakfast, coming back in the early afternoon to do five minutes gardening, half an hour of drawing and then eventually writing and/or painting on the computers – ending the day … Continue reading
