  <![CDATA[Its been a while since I posted anything.

Three things seem to be happening...

St Pauls Hammersmith is progressing slowly and theres a new cafe at the end which makes incredible coffee.Ive had a few problems with the crucifixion - particularly with His feet and the levels of darkness but am pushing through.

I am making a bronze monument to go in Highgate cemetary,
and have a show of prodigal bronzes and paintings at Marlborough college for six months.

Im also going to put on a show of drawings at some stage although I need a little chivvying.]]>

  <![CDATA[Im writing in the horizontal position, and have been for a month- not writing-just horizontal , due to an accident with a sheet of glass landing on a bare ankle.
It effortlessly cut through flesh and tendons- notably the anterior tibialis- which I never appreciated till now as being the thing that lifts the foot up and down
All these years of walking and dancing, it has humbly and thanklessly  done its job.
Now it has gone.
A surgeon sought the ends and the tendon is reunited with itself - leaving me a twelve inch scar and a lot of morphine.
I am not allowed to stand or walk till december- meaning I cant go to St Pauls hammersmith.

This is my news.
Im trying to remain chirpy by doing cartoons.

I dont think this information is important- but Ive said it now.

  <![CDATA[Just in case you had added your details to the exhibition mailout list and  were wondering why you hadnt been invited- its because I havent had one, yet, but when I do, you ll receive one with bells on. So to speak.
As an antidote to painting the absurdly large triptych Ive taken to doing small drawings. Its a huge relief somehow to do something that doesnt involve climbing all over the place and risking your neck.
I think the show will be called - Small drawings.
Its to the point at least.

  <![CDATA[Im still painting the triptych in St Pauls...and have a cherry picking machine. No more swinging from scaffolding twenty feet up and slipping on oil paint at midnight.
Now I just sit , press buttons and elevate which will makes things easier but Ill get fat- or fatter.
It seems Im more interested in the cherry picker than the painting and you are still welcome to come and visit even if its just to admire the machine.]]>

  <![CDATA[I woke this morning to hear my dog trying to climb over some canvases to get onto my bed.She failed.
My house has been taken over by drawings and clutter to the extent that theres no room left for me and my dog/friends/anything else.
On this basis Ive decided to do an exhibition as  it would seem logical if only to make room.
I wanted to wait till St Pauls was finished but then again my home has indigestion and I can do another show with St Pauls later.
If youd like to be invited to the show in London just let me know via this site.
