Art for arts sake

Recently I have been fiddling about with sculpture..I am interested in trying to manifest dark energy. The way I have tried to show it in this form, is in the way it has been sliced and interrupted.
The form I imagine as a billet of plasma..The annihilation affect of the dark energy has sliced it into three pieces. I am in the process of having five forms cast in bronze and maybe steel..
I am also working on a separate wooden one.

Blazing a trail

I am starting to feel a bit lost, being without employment and all..It gets to me, insidiously.
But then I thought, well why not go and visit my Brother in Oregon..I havn't seen him for ten years or so now..
So I have been fantasising of renting a cool bike, something like a Triumph Bonneville or just a big old single or a twin.
Pick it up at Denver and just blat over the Rockys for a couple of days..Take my time, looking all cool and a bit renegade, smoking roll ups. And rowing with rednecks..
And just ripping of into the hilly distance..Then he and I could fish for a weekend.Chew the fat and drink two bottles of twenty five year old Macallan.
And swear a bit..

Dirty dogs

Glorious weather of late. Walking back at dusk the other night, young Basil had snatched up some leaves.Or so I thought, He looked a bit shifty and wouldn't meet my eye so I grabbed the stuff off him..Turned out to be a big meaty lump of dog..shit.

.Egg was well and truly on my face..I could hear my wife and son, groaning and chuckling away behind me as I walked the rest of the way to our house..I still think he is ace though..

filthy animals

So I am between jobs at the moment, Which gives me lots of time to spend with Basil. Yesterday we walked in the local woods and we met Lee the international football talent scout from eighties Liverpool, and his Staffy pup Rocky.The two pups are exactly the same age and they loved each other.

Lee and I discussed the problems facing the English youth game, of which he feels partly to blame. He told me how important it is when taking on a young Argentinian superstar to know how he may react to being two nil down on a wet No vember night in Darlington..

While we talked, (me giving my best, fake, bloke footy banter). The two pups raced and wrestled each other filthy.I had to shower him straight away, pulling out loads of thistle heads.
