Well, the Crowsteps exhibition opening at Blairlogie attracted a good turn out of people including one of the leading "movers and shakers" in the art world , my former Head of Dep. at Glasgow School of Art, David Harding.www.davidharding.org David is the original pioneer of environmental art and the following interview with him is worth reading. www.communityarts.net/readingroom/archive/ca/roth-harding.php .
He made some favourable comments about my video "Matriarch" which deals with three generations of women's hands.

Keeping a blog is bad for your health!
Well, according to psychologists at a conference in Edinburgh yesterday they said that keeping a diary of traumatic events and re-reading them could be bad for your mental health.
But what if you don't have traumatic events to record and you don't re-read your entries every few days? Well, that was not covered . This research strikes me as positively weak, full of loopholes.

Have been helping Lys Hansen with setting up the Crowsteps exhibition this week in Blairlogie. See her website:http://www.goartists.co.uk/LysHansen.asp.

Fiona Ross, an artist friend, has just come back from Edinburgh where she delivered some work to the Solo gallery in Dundas St. She's taking part in a group exhibition opening on Friday Sept. 10th.
She specialises in the Fife coast and her paintings of fishing villages are cheerful and colourful, not surprisingly they sell well.www.tartangallery.com
