Inspire 52 - Week -2 - What's It All About?!

I am getting revved up for the launch of my '52' project, a challenging art project which will take me on a creative journey through 2012, whereby I will document my art practice through 52 new inspirations, one each week, over the coming year - and I have just received my logo today, so what better time but to launch my blog!! Yay!

I will document each new piece of my journey and communicate my findings, art work, poems or other pieces I create on this blog so that you can follow my ups and down, revelations and frustrations of challenging my art practice over the next year - I'm really looking forward to it!! - So become my friend on Facebook, subscribe to my blog and follow my artistic journey over the next year - there is a lot to come so hold onto your hats and wigs! (I do love a good wig - see my Monochronium pics!!)

I am also delighted that my good friend, photo artist, event facilitator and perfectionist detail extraordinaire, Howard Shepherd will be joining me on the 52 journey for 2012 with 'Image 52'. Howard will be approaching the 52 project through the photographic image ... His blog is coming soon too - also check out his fab logo. Howard is the Director of 'FAB' Film Arts Bournemouth 2012 - so he will have lots of interesting insights into his artistic world coming up.

The first 52 project was launched by Caroline Parrott at the beginning of 2011 and she is almost at the end of her creative journey, on the first 52 project 'Make 52'. Each week Caroline has been making a new piece that furthers her artistic 'craft' practice, stretching and challenging herself through a journey of artistic exploration. I am delighted that over the last year our artistic paths have crossed on several occasions and I, and my work, have been the subject of Caroline's Make 52's on three occasions; The Bookshelf, The Monochronium, and also following me to illustrate a live performance.
