in the absence of any proper blogging (loads to catch up on, but its all about the Micro-blogging at the moment...) i thought i'd copy and paste a wee silly poem that McParty did write about paintMonkey, just to fill the empty space.
An Ode to Paintmonkey
Oh Paintmonkey you silly sod
you elbowed me, gave me the nod
to get me off my arse to blog.
so there you go.
i have added a link to Mcparty's blog with all the other links... but its on probabtion... ;-P
and that was Me.

- I believe that a passion for narrative and subject is an essential pre-requisite for a successful painting. If the artist feels ambivalent about whatever is captured in a photograph, a sketchbook or on canvas how can they hope to have any impact on those who see the final piece? Without authority the artist will leave his audience frustrated or worse, indifferent. Communicating mood & emotion are my most important motivators for making images. I’ve never been overly concerned with technical perfection or producing an accurate pictorial record of a subject or a location. For me the heart of painting and photography is to capture and communicate an atmosphere and what I’m feeling, as much (if not more) than what I see at the time of painting. If my paintings, sketches and photography speak to the viewer on an emotional level then I have succeeded in my work.

@mr or miss or ms or mrs anonymous.
your comment fails on silly and incorrect overuse of exclamation/question mark combo.
please try harder next time , and if you have a definition of 'proper blogging' i'd be interested to hear/see it.
