Blog day 3

If you are reading this now It will mean that I am not working!!! back to work Lec! Day 3 at the Armory artist in residence (AKA camp cheerio). Its been very quiet and monastic so far. Im told its a slow time...artists are just waking up from the new year... I can hear the sheets slowly rustling across western sydney. So far so good. Im here with Adam, A lovely young man who won a months residency for his last year of National art school ( the school I got into and went to study art therapy instead - what on earth was I thinking..) Adam is a sculptor and is working on creating moulds of small clay figures that will be cast in bronze. The figures are  foundry workers an image I imagine comes from Adam's work in bronze casting founderies. We are currently trying to see who can get up the earliest and beat the other to the studio. Very daggy - not cool for artists at all! My excuse is that im forty five and have less time here on earth left ( and that's assuming alot right there) not sure what Adam's reasons are tho.
