First post. Well, welcome! I built this website super fast using the inbuilt Ai web building functions, which has been an energy saver and stopped me getting super frustrated. All very welcome in terms of admin assistance.
I will be posting the occasional things here - process, thinking and anything I need to get out of my head really. Whilst I've been on this journey for some time, I've only recently started making work I'm happy enough with. The learning process has been long and brilliant fun. Not sure I've quite hit my 10k hours yet, but I'm working on it.
Producing work for the Norwich Pride exhibition this year was a sigh of relief, the feedback was good to hear - not that I'm going to tell anyone how to interpret my work. All very reassuring. As someone who struggles with rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD) putting work out there to be seen by many was a big step in my recovery.
I'm going to produce lots more work over the coming months and hope to show some of it too. It will be risque - queer and kink coded, sometime blatant. Anything goes when it comes to my creative practice. This website is not governed by any of the censorship brigade, and is perfect for more explicit works - of which there will be plenty! Keep coming back to see where I'm at.
