En lisant et écoutant en français autant que je peux, je prépare pour mon voyage en juin: 10/05/13 - 17/05/13. En ce moment, je suis en train de lire ‘L’étranger’ par Camus, (j’avoue avec d’intermittence pendant mes examens), un livre qui est très bien recommandé.

What I’ve loved, thought and been inspired by is here as visual record, but as an artist I love that I’m open to those who visit this web page, to those who find it!
I’ve been feeling like a Da Vinci, I’ve recently had too many ideas to record or get down, needing a note book or something to translate them into some type/form of legible medium. I hope I never lose...
Ok, so its our 20th birthday. I’m nervous, having got an exam tomorrow. But we had a beautiful day and we couldn’t have asked for better. Like Emily said, our real birthday is today but we will be able to share it together in later times to come. Today the sun was shining and so were our hearts.

COLOURS
Essay thesis: Colours have meaning to the extent to which they have a function. For us they exist, so they must have a function. What a beautiful gift it is to have them.
It is pertinent to examine visual artwork in response to this question; this expressive medium is one of the best analyses of our surrounding environment.

Pliny's Chapters on the History of Art
‘The story runs that Parrhasios and Zeuxis entered into competition, Zeuxis exhibiting a picture of some grapes, so true to nature that the birds flew up to the wall of the stage.
