New Work. New direction.

Maybe it's spring in the air. I have a feeling of change overwhelming me. I have not been spending much time in the studio in the last few months until this week when all of a sudden I cannot get out.
The catalyst was taking all my painting off the wall and resolving to start again in filling them up. It is the advantage of having a good hanging system that it is no real commitment in hanging anything on the wall - it can easily be changed.
Maybe I am feeling a little NZ home sick but I seem to be inclined to landscape right now. I have also put away the brushes and resolved to only work with a pallet knife. It is wonderfully messy and immediate.
