im totally pro crastination

yeah i am... st anthony is sitting in the corner facing the wall, thinking about what he's done. that'll learn 'm.

meanwhile, i have been painting on a smaller self portrait. called "self portrait on a chair" i probably wont bother posting updates on that one though since i'm using those images in a video project which i've begun in tandom with it.

yup, i'm peeking through the post modern curtain at last (having never been too fond of modernism anyway) and seeing whats on the otherside. phew! it still accepts my painting, just, but it also encourages a much broader use of medium. video could be expensive, but i think its essential to me right now.

i havent, by the way, decided to start using video because of any particular thing i've seen, frankly the video experiments i actually have been impressed by tend to be older but still beyond me.. but no, i actually just had an idea a few weeks ago and started jotting down "script" details immediatly and, well, this idea can only be a video. performance wont do it. paintings dont move etc etc.. so i started taping this week. i'm excited about the possibilities but at the same time, since i have no real experience in the medium, i have no real expectations as to what the finished product will look like.. its just more about the process.

otherwise, i laid up all the bits and parts i've collected for my "club golvet" piece and set them on a board. looked, poked and arranged in various ways, then put them back in the cup. i have a good idea now what else is needed so it should start coming together after easter sometime.
