Bibelot

Found a word I liked many years ago when I lived in France - Bibelot! It means "tat" bought in poundshops. Not sure where I am going to go with this but thought I would put it down.

I spent most part of the afternoon in a workshop with our tutor Les, learning that our personal development plan is essential to our work. I feel I am on the right track but after some thought maybe i need to work on conclusions ie where are my questions and findings taking me

I liked the word "Hybrid " today. Pig and toothpaste = pig shaped toothpaste and bacon tasting toothpaste for dogs. I really loved doing this as idea brain storming is where I excel. My brain could go on for hours.... how about suspended shopping and Holograph mirrors so that you dont have to try the clothes on but see them on an image of you. Or no currency but pens to draw money with. You have to earn credits to buy the pens...

On the way home today,I noticed orange spray paint leaves on the pavement all the way down my street. I followed them and started wondering was it a treasure hunt or a trail like Hansel and Gretel. Was it a sos cry for help???. I think I prefer the treasure hunt idea.

I have finished my drawing and 100 word for my submission to "Oh Comely" magazine and am quite excited to see if my drawing gets published.

I am also looking at the use of colour and how our eye perceives colours. I am happy to learn that we have workshop on Friday....
