blog design in progress.....


What a journey it has been. I have seen a lot, experienced more, and continue in the search for the ultimate: to be able to perceive and understand what is around us in Nature, to learn from the calmness and revitalisation one feels when in a beautiful place; or watch something that drives your soul, such as a bird. The continual ebb and flow of nature reveals no prejudice. I think we all need to observe a bird, to get some humility into humanity.

5 Days to go before pole pole po.. - wobble wobble - pole pole po.. - splash - gasp, lunge back onto mekoro ... breathe.. balance - pole pole etc etc for hopefully not the duration of the trip!

For a more indepth look at the trip : http://www.safaristeve.net

The life of an artist is definitely not easy. I once had a guidance counselor at school that said if I continued with art I would end up in the gutters - mmm the nerve!! It is tough though - trying to seduce funds out of every conceivable source for the wonderful 'quiet' life that we do have. It is definitely not easy. Did any one say it was??

I have just sold my last BIRD original of the single Bee-eater! Hooray! I have 'lots of line on my reel' so I look forward to getting stuck in on my return from a hopefully exhilarating trip. A possible commission - meetings with galleries... and to continue with my little Barred Owlet which is going to be a beautiful drawing..
