until further notice. That was my major breakfast time announcement to the wife this morning after spending a painting day (Sunday) putting together a flat pack wardrobe. Ditto all garden projects. There is only so much time that I can devote to menial tasks before my delicate sensibilities become affected. The plus side to all this is my painting must be going well as I am no longer looking for the tiniest excuse to avoid it. This painting is finished, it has turned out well although at times I did labour a little. Next painting, something that should be off limits, one of the most painted and photographed sites in all of Northumberland, even JWM Turner succumbed to its crumbling romantic charms. Hopefully it will not be another piece of tourist tat.
