Terrifying

designwithflair, ,

Tell us about your first day at something — school, work, as a parent, etc.

There have been so many ‘firsts’ and each first is always met with trepidation.

First time I went to my all girls’ boarding school, I cried. Didn’t want to be left there. I wanted my dad to stay with me or take me back home. It took so long for me to settle. First time I went to a secondary school reunion, I was terrified cos we were all in the same all girls’ boarding school. I wanted my husband to stay with me or take me back home.

First time I changed a nappy….I was terrified….even with the midwife talking me through it….I wanted her to take over.

Firsts are daunting…..then not so scary second time around.

Spontaneity is the watchword that informs my art practice. My artwork celebrates the energy of abstract expressionism. 'why not?' underlines my creative process. Forget the box! Its obsolete...it's all about whatever shape you want to throw on that dance floor! The process drives my practice!! For me, work well done is work I have thoroughly enjoyed making...work that has made me think, sweat, cry, scream and come back for more!!! Work that gets my back up; pushes me...gives me cause for doubt. Makes me push in order for 'why not?' to become possible. Boundaries? What boundaries?
