Artistic Note

Authored

Did you know I have an in-house proof reader? They are busy this week. If a word doesn't make sense it's because my spelling was so bad the computer couldn't figure it out and I picked the wrong word from the options provided. I did not enjoy English at primary school (2/10 - see me) πŸ˜…

  • I attended a technical writing course at work this week. I learnt our team are pretty good at technical writing, and that we can be better. The sessions were delivered by Cherryleaf who host the Cherryleaf podcast. I haven't checked that out myself yet but it might be a good listen if you're looking to improve your technical writing.
  • We didn't get the house. It sold for a great deal of money, around 20% over the guide price. In hindsight it was worth that much to us, and we can afford it, I'm sad we missed out. Onwards! I'm strangely zen in my disappointment.
  • Our rental house has many hooks but we don't have much to put on them still. On the wall in front of me now are 7 picture hooks and 5 remain empty; I have a devils ivy trailing down from one, its pot made secure on the shallow hook against its will; on another there is a digital archival print of a collage featuring pretty shapes, daisies(?), a couple of butterflies with male and female symbols, and a dead bird... its sum is greater than its parts.
  • The art speaks to me. It reminds me there is a beautiful world out there whilst I'm working at my desk. And of death. And that I should not be sat here.
  • Hello! Conversely I'm more enthusiastic to be sat here than ever. I've finished reading Art Direction for the Web and can't wait to put some of what I've learnt into practise.
  • Movie recommendation: Rocks 😭 β™₯️
  • It's a 4 day weekend for me, hurrah! πŸ•ΊπŸ’ƒ

Until next week friends.
