Poppings


Do you know that feeling; of having so many ideas in your head that you just can’t think straight and you don’t know what to do first? That has been me for the last few days.  Ideas for a myriad of paintings, drawings, sculptures, an artist’s book, and illustrations, even a whole children’s book have flooded into my head;  Much in the manner of ‘Poppings’ as described by P. Kivy in ‘The fine art of repetition: essays in the philosophy of music’.  There just isn’t enough time to thoroughly explore them all in order to judge each idea’s value.  I am already feeling pressed for time with preparations and paperwork for my Adult education workshops to do (why does everything require a load of paperwork these days?).
