I’ve been reconnecting with old friends from various chapters in my life. Today, I spent some time with an old painting tutor of mine in Budapest, the wonderful Zsofi Varga. She showed me her new website, and I was touched to see that it hosts these old pieces I painted some ten years ago (or more!). I really must do more visual art this year.
Art begets art. Whatever form of art you explore, it will inspire other art projects and this can cross forms. A poet can conjure new ideas from a dance; a musician can be moved to compose by a script. I a primarily a writer of drama and prose fiction but as an Art College alumna – I often meet my muse in the visual arts. Here are some of my old works:

Like the idea of arts cross pollination. Must do more of it this year – I find music very inspiring. And that watermelon looks good enough to eat.

Stunning portrait… a fellow polymath I see (I was going to say jack of all trades, but when people want to put it politely to me they say polymath).

thanks Hilary.. the ‘math’ part of that worries me, however… because if there’s one thing I sure as hell can’t do… (does that un-poly me?)
