"A Lucid Moment of Suspension" - Oil on canvas: 60x60 cm plus frame
|
Hello ,
well, what strange times indeed! My partner and I are safely tucked up in our Cornish cottage – amidst all the uncertainties, fears, strict legislation and interesting shopping excursions - hey ho. I really hope you are keeping well and staying safe yourself, wherever you happen to be living. Isolation isn't easy for anyone, especially if you are unwell.
I realise this is my first newsletter for 2020! To be fair to myself, I've been pretty busy with house moving arrangements - that is until sadly they've all been put on hold. I've not felt too inspired to paint lately, but making plenty new music and writing. I thought it would be good to get in touch anyway, to offer a little
inspiration and connectivity from this end of the world - a little touch of Cornwall at your fingertips!
So . . .
Firstly, you might like to read a blog-post I published yesterday about why some artists find it difficult to stay in touch with fans, (how apt!). Read the blog below – then please let me off for taking a four month break – thanks!
Also, I spent a few days last week writing a lengthy poem addressing coronavirus (literally). You can read the abridged version below, which I believe you'll find both inspiring and stimulating.
Here's a brief preview:
You've ushered me into a keen-edged life,
One in which things I do matter, not only
To me, but also the knock-on world - every
One held in trust.
Finally, I shall be posting new material regularly on the website during my incarceration, as well as sharing more writing – and my music. So I'll be in touch again soon.
Meanwhile go well and safe – and should you be yearning toward what may well be missing currently from your life, take a look at some of the inspiration below:
(By the way, if you should be tempted toward a piece of artwork for yourself, feel free to get in touch to see what I can offer you. Just reply here.)
Not Forgetting Where You Count the Days!

I still have some calendars awaiting good homes. So until they are gone, I'm still offering them as
BUY ONE GET ONE FREE
If you already have one, then there's a new opportunity for inspirational lockdown presents! And of course, it goes without saying - buy two and get four etc.
Have Time for Reviews Now?

Check out the Google reviews I've received so far below. Then if you feel you'd like to - leave me one yourself - if you've bought anything from me in the past. Much appreciated - thanks!
Best for now, and thanks again for any reviews you provide,
Steve
ps. Email me back with any questions, feedback, etc.

Thank you for your continued interest.

"Wait For Me There In Wonderment" - Oil on canvas: 61x76 cm plus frame

(This very special oil painting of St. Michael's Mount still needs a loving home. The full retail gallery wall price is just over £3,000. However, there is a better price - just ask me. It is framed and ready to deliver
for immediate inspiration!.)
