passing the parcel......

well the parcel has now been passed.
I can now look forward to seeing everyone's parcels...
I honestly found the whole process very tricky, but this shows just how much I stay in my world. I should get out more!

good luck Neil

a little look at what I am working on.........

Time is running out....

I am just not sure.........but time is nearly gone.
I suspect that without a deadline I would still be deciding what to do.

The only rule that I set myself was to stay away from laborious outcomes....and I think I broke that rule. Perhaps it is just in my nature to work very intricately.

I am finding it so hard to create something that has no destination. Playing rather than finishing. I feel outside of my comfort zone.

Yay I made the image appear!!
Sorry for the delay.....i have had technical difficulties...all kinds.

I have only just managed to fully appreciate Karen’s pass the parcel......wow well done Karen!
She will be amused (hopefully) at all the random emails that I have sent her today.

Is it possible to be over inspired?

Let it begin....

Well - Done!

Well-done Karen!


Knowing how challenging this first appeared to you before you started the week – it was a great pleasure to see you actually relaxing and really enjoying the creative process.


…This shows on the final piece - it's wonderful!

















For me this is what “pass the parcel” is all about – The freedom to have fun with creativity!


I can’t wait to see all of the artworks together!


Good luck to all those to follow…Have fun!

Completed and ready to pass on!


Alas, back home.
A little tease image wise.
My work is completed and ready to pass onto Samantha.
Parcel is ready to return home to Helaina, he had a great time and the weather was good so he has a nice glowing tan!
Giggle!
Karen

Phewwww

how exciting...... . I have not logged on for awhile.

I have found it interesting reading the postings from the lastest backwards.....

It is sooo good people are being challenged. Just what we need in live to step aside from or rutted path and be thrilled...

I can barely wait to see the responses.

Sadly I did not get my own sneak preview in Whitby!!


Well done one and all, enjoy!

Whitby reporting in...

Hello from Whitby!

Enjoying a nice cold beer in a cyber cafe and thought i'd report in.

Started at the beginning of the week gathering my thoughts and ideas on my response to Parcel, busy exploring different mediums and being free in this. Got loads at this stage and I will be homing "it" into a completed piece soon.

I have had moments where my head has been bursting with ideas, which as been at times a little overwhelming. It is impacting on my time here as what I am seeing and experiencing is in some way connecting with the parcel - sometimes very spookily!

Surprising connections everywhere!

.....Mean while to Parcel himself who is having a whale of a time!.....
He has enjoyed a walks on the beach, a ride on a donkey and the hedonistic play on the "tu-penny" slot machines, copious amounts of icecream and ginger beer!

Good cake choice...

I'm so pleased that the response to my little parcel has been positive, and that Karen seems to be treating it like one of the family! Rocky road is always a good cake/biscuit choice aswell!

The "WOW!" factor.

Andrew Warburton has not been doing his job properly and as the unofficial photographer for Karen’s pass the parcel, he is belatedly letting you have a sneaky peek at the unwrapping of the parcel from Helaina.

At this point I would just like to say that it was by pure coincidence that I gate crashed Karen’s opening of the parcel at Sainsbury’s cafe, honest. There was a collective “wow!” that came from us once the parcel was opened. I had a hard time keeping my initial impressions to myself as this was Karen’s moment and I was just an intruder. Here is the photographic record that I took so that you can enjoy it as well.




Just in case you were wondering what was in the other parcel, I can reveal that it was this….











I hope that the next pass the parcellers have as much fun as we both had unwrapping it in Sainsbury's before we were kicked out (other coffee shops are available).

Wow Karen, this is sounding like a big creative undertaking even before the parcel is unwrapped, what a great story, keep us all posted
