You see you can't do it, you can't collect, mount and stuff words and hang them
like trophies. However pretty the display case, a butterfly pinned against
a card is not the same as a butterfly in flight.
Another Stephen Fry quote from the Trefusius series --
on dictionaries
I bought one dress, and one top. I still need a decent pair of trousers to go with the top, and shoes of course! Shoes are always a problem. I also bought 2 vintage dresses that I want to customize. Just have to figure out when.
Clothes shopping depresses me so. Even IF I am willing and able to spend some cash, I just can't find anything I like. And I refuse to spend a lot of money on clothes that are just a compromise.
For example you would think that it is possible to go down to the shops and buy a pair of trousers that are not black or mud-coloured, right? No! Far from it: ALL trousers in this world are black, bleak and boring. I'd take anything: red, green, even blue. But they do not exist! How frustrating!
It's been a year now...
...since the arrest.
I wouldn't even have noticed if Lees hadn't mentioned it. What a stressful
year it has been! I have never fully recovered, but at least I'm off the
SleepEeze now, LOL
And it looks like things are going to get "interesting" again. That
Channel Four
documentary is also going to be broadcast soon. LOL - It's up there
with classics like "God's Nudist Camp", "The Holy Hottie" and "The Town
That's Looking For Love". But what did we except?
I must get Stephen to record it on DVD as I will be at the Pigalle gig
that evening!
Here are some of the
paintings I have done recently. They are from a series I call "Care".
(Stephen calls them "When-will-you-stop-painting-depressing-pictures?".)
They are not really a series because the styles don't go together -- and I
shouldn't really display them all on one page. The first one is the most
photo-realistic, but I tried to be more naive with the others.
The shots are very bad, therefore the colours are quite wrong. You'll have
to come round and look at the originals. ;-)
