I'm pleasantly content being here in SaPa and around. It can be lovely living amongst mountains, a good batch of people, tasty food and hill tribes. Truly inspiring.
Whilst it may seem I've been lounging around SaPa, not doing much...although somewhat true, it's been a tad busy! Part of this busy-ness is related to one of my little hobbies.
I am 110% aware that I'm a total amateur BUT I enjoy it so, so much! Passion, passion, passion.
Here is a clone of one of my many favourite paintings [Workshop, c1914-15, by Wyndham Lewis] with my 'Made in China' acrylic paints and paintbrushes purchased in good ol' Hanoi. British*Vorticism* strikes back (in Vietnam)!
It's a massive far cry from the real one, but I can't wait to put it up on a wall...any wall!
I'm prone to rushing and it's evident through this painting. Paint direct to canvas and absence of a ruler...the colours and angles give me organic highs! Three addictive and loving hours later...
...Why am I so impatient?!
Vorticism - You remain with me! x

Who needs a ruler? May it grace my wall? Hmmm? X
