technically i have fulfilled my brief that i set for myself of making 30 seagull paintings. i thought i'd finished with it, but today i did the phone box one, which i enjoyed and it opened up a mass of territory that i haven't really covered with the project thus far (ha). i also enjoyed some of the sillier paintings and might do some more around those kind of themes. i dunno. i'm also working on some more 'classical' stuff. but i'm not 100% sure about those. i'll probably attempt to finish them anyway, but it's very heavy going and i'm not (as i said before) 100% sure about them.
i'm exhausted. painted for about 7 hours today. 2 hours / lunch/ 3 hours/ tea / 2 hours / bed and i might have some toast. i have a hankering for some toast and apricot jam and a cup of tea. i need to look into making a bigger mug to have a mighty bucket of tea from. i always make a cup and then i get really into it and it's over. and my milk goes out of date tonight, so i'll go and make a big cup of tea before it goes off at midnight.
