JULY

Besides drawing experiments and chopping wood for the open fire in our house not much else has occurred in the little village of La Consulta for me.  It is wintertime so things naturally slow down.  Our two dogs did manage to catch and kill a fox a few weeks ago and the dogs v/s guinea pig war continues with surprisingly zero casualties on either side. I hear there is a world cup on somewhere but I am not sure who is winning or losing.  I am sure that someone will win and some other team will loose and that seems to be the idea of most forms of sport. Am I a winner or a loser? Today I feel like a winner as I have just completed a large group of Mountain inspired drawings and I am alive.. Also we have homemade pizza for dinner!  Makes most people quite happy I believe.

I soon pack for another trip over the Pacific Ocean. Heading to Melbourne for the usual reasons of family, friends and art functions also the odd fondue party if I am lucky.  Then after a stint in Australia I stuff the passport back into my pocket then into the rucksack I stuff a few extra clothes and some art to continue my roaming about like a lost puppy on a global scale.
