just paint. This is the advice I would give to my young self setting out to college. Of course I would just ignore it, then spend the next 35 years slowly learning the lesson. Now I can do it, but is it too late? I could be an Alfred Wallis type character undiscovered until old age, I don’t mind waiting. Will I develop sufficiently over the next 25 years, that is the gamble. Fortunately I enjoy painting so I will carry on regardless. I sense a stylistic shift, this does not surprise me, its gone more Bruegelesque, which means I will pull out my Bruegel books and head off in that direction for a couple of weeks.
