YouTube version of a video work-in-progress of mine.

I’m not sure exactly how this video will end up, but I’ve been putting a few fragments together since March this year.

Need to join them together, cut out a few of the pixelated bits, add audio tracks, etc

In lieu of any of my own artwork, here are some pieces of artwork by other artists that I’ve been seriously impressed by recently:

I read that as ‘autistic draught’.

I just had to go back and check my spelling, just in case.

Slowly but surely getting some ideas together for new artwork.

This has been a long artistic drought, and I’m glad I can see the end of it now.

The only messages I’ve had in my Tumblr inbox recently are from spammers telling me about miraculous new wonder-diets *sigh*

It’s that time again: time to remind myself - oh, and you - who the hell I am.

I’m Paul Watson, an artist based in Brighton, UK. I work in various media - collage & assemblage, photography, drawing, book arts, and printmaking (letterpress & lino). You can see all my artwork on my website.

Offers to buy artwork, to send me huge amounts of money in generous acts of philanthropy, or to volunteer to get paid to model for my drawings/photography are always gratefully accepted.

Went on a bit of a spending-spree on some new art books to give me some inspiration.

Anti-clockwise from top:

Weirdo Noir: Gothic and Dark Lowbrow Art
Imogen Cunningham: On The Body
Symbols & Allegories in Art
Blood (Mark Ryden)
Wonderland (various artists: a “visual essay … on dreams, the imagination, the surreal and the divine”)
Object that Dreams: Zoren Gold & Minori
New Fashion Photography (not strictly accurate title - it’s actually conceptual photography)

Congratulations to my LGBTQ friends & followers on being another step closer to achieving equal rights to marry after the House of Lords today rejected the attempt to wreck the UK Equal Marriage bill by a huge majority.

I know the bill has still got additional stages to pass yet, but it’s looking hopeful that it will become law.

what new art have you done recently?

Fri, 31 May 2013 21:49:35 +0100

None, unfortunately - I’ve been busy in my day job, and that’s left me tired and uninspired in my free time.

I’m hoping to get something new done soon, though.

Friday night wine

It’s Friday night, so I’m drinking wine and relaxing.

So please ask me some questions. I have no list of questions for you to pick from - you’ll have to be creative. Rise to the challenge!

The giant steps we had to take,
The path that ever promise made to
Die in dream, dissolve and fade

Splurged a bit of money on some art books from abebooks.

Hoping that art books will bring artistic inspiration.

Hello

Mon, 27 May 2013 21:42:00 +0100

I seem to have gained a few new followers to this blog over the past week, so hello and thank you! :)

As you’ve probably worked out, I’m an artist/photographer/printmaker living in Brighton, UK (and a web geek for my day job).

You can find examples of my photography, printmaking, and drawing on my website or on this blog.

I’m always happy to answers questions and say hello:

Might do a 2-week sale on my remaining lino prints, to clear some shelf space.

All of this is, of course, just procrastination, and I really should get on with making more artwork.

Procrastination is good ;)

Yes, but I’ve spent the past 2 months procrastinating.

It really is time for me to actually make something new.
