Bisy backson.

I'm not going to say I'm back. Because that implies some kind of rekindled dedication to regular posting, and I'm just not sure if that is a reality that I can commit to at this very second.

At the moment, there is a great deal of thinking important thoughts going on inside my head. This is quite taxing and requires a relative degree of madness.

For therapy, I have been painting parts of my house.

I have decided, that with it's expansive walls and super high ceilings, painting whole rooms of the house in one go is an overwhelmingly large task. And I suspect such giant tracts of colour would perhaps be overwhelming for the sets of eyeballs that live inside the house. So instead I am painting small parts of rooms and experimenting with the ways in which little moments of passing colour can change the feel of the place. 

I have tried to photograph some of this but there is a giant thunderstorm outside and no natural light except of the extremely gloomy kind and it all just looks a bit blerg. I will wait for a sunny day and then share the joy of the very small painting project with you.

The insane storminess is a bit of a theme around here lately. It has been relentlessly rainy. But because I am a sterling dog owner, I have been taking my dog out in the extreme super wetness. This is what the beach looked like a couple of days ago when I was there with my dog and she made friends with another dog called Rufus who looked scary but was really quite nice. Rufus is a pretty good dog name I think.
