I'm semi back..

After a struggle against the world of Apple and it's special cables (meaning I didn't have any I could use to connect to an existing VGA connection on my monitor) I finally have something set up and working albeit on reduced screen due to resolution issues.  I have a load of Dunnys ready to prime, and a couple of commissions to finish, the bulk of old work is finished, and the rest should be done very soon. I have however managed to completely screw my back doing garden based things..So rest is in order or i'll be out of it for even longer. Damn.

In my quest to find interesting things to do outside of the studio, I bought a propagator, some runner bean seeds, marigold seeds and set them to grow, as well as re-potting my cacti into bigger pots... They've been prisoners of cheap plastic pots for far too long! Hopefully this will be a small hobby for me as well as growing credit crunch busting food.. We'll see! It does say that runner beans are perfect for children to grow, if they fail, I'll weep..

No custom ictures today, but I should have some new ones done this week if my back gets better, I lean over in a rather odd way to paint (probably contributed to the damage in the first place) as this helps me with the small details. Fingers crossed painting should resume in the next couple of days... But damn, right now this is agony.

Currently listening to the Kitsune Tabloid by Phoenix, a nice eclectic selection on there, it comes recommended!

Hope you're all having a good start to the week!

Oh mate, I hope your back's better by now!

You're going to need a field within the year at this rate! :)
