Speaking of Words

So. After a year of work we're almost there. My first spoken word release is almost out of the oven. Titled Speaking of Words, it will be released on Peace&Cookies label and I think it's all so exciting! Here is one of the tracks for you this very fine Sunday.

Brighton-Artist Residence, day one...

In Brighton, in a hotel called Artist Residence, who kindly gave me a room to basically do what I feel with...well...to decorate with my artwork to be specific.

Arrived in the afternoon with the speed of light...the room was not ready as the train journey was unexpectedly quick (well, the world is full of surprises when you do not pay attention to the info provided by train companies...:)..)

So I was sent off to explore the town what lead to about 50 snaps in my camera, some sunset on the beach footage in the can and a hot dog and a latte overlooking the seagulls and the pebbles...

The only time I was in Brighton before was for a party, age 18. Not much recollection there, only that Vanessa and I hitch-hiked from Bournemouth to Brighton and back for a weekend...:)very blurry memories...

I spent couple of hours walking, now I am sketching and tomorrow the painting begins...

it's coming, solo show is coming!!! :)

Me on The Fashion Show on ITV2

Well.
Lovely Carol from Princess Productions rang up yesterday if I would like to help them with their tv show. I had no idea what I am agreeing to, but as I am up for pretty much anything, it was as usual well worth it. My carefully chosen combination of the impossible worked. The fashion critic told me off big time (for what I had on), and I feel totally achieved. Evil Ape by MCA was on my chest, my newly purchased and improved Rocketdog boots on my feet, the rest was just bunch of other fine charity shop finds, I turned a few heads on the tube on the way there and back, so overall feeling is wonderful. Thanks a lot Carol for this memorable experience!! :)no idea when the footage will air, but The Fashion show is on Thursdays 8pm on ITV2 in UK if you want to see it...I do not own a tv, so I will be excluded from the rest of it, but you, do enjoy!!
