Every picture…

We’ve all heard it a thousand times or more , the old phrase “Every Picture Tells a Story”. I found this to be particularly true after making a montage of images ( seen here) . The final print of which has been waiting on my  desk to be mounted, and everyone who has popped into the office is drawn straight to it and starts asking questions about the Montagedifferent images of which there are 55. You then start telling the tale of each image, why it was taken, who it was of, or the circumstances of how you came to be in a particular place at a moment in time. Even though some are three or four years back I can recall the taking of each of them as though it was only last week. If you can make any out from the montage feel free to ask.

The selection of images was random, based more on shape than content , but it was interesting to see a mix of pictures gathered together on one big print.

Bye for now

A moving experience…

 

After working from the top floor of our home for the past 12 years , I have taken the plunge and moved into new serviced office accommodation in Scarborough’s Woodend Creative Workspace. The building which is a  grade II* listed marine villa was built in 1835 for the civil engineer George Knowles after which it became home to the Sitwell family in the 1870’s. Most recently it is remembered locally as housing the Borough Council’s Natural History collection.

A new wing of offices has been built onto the original house which houses gallery and exhibition space, and artists studios and  conference facilities. Artists,publishers,graphic designers and photographers have already started moving into the building which still feels and sounds a bit empty , but I’m sure as more people move in it will feel a bit more lived in.
