Saturday, October 1, 2022

Today is my mom's 71st birthday. My daughter and I made the fresh beef stew, my sister brought fresh fries and salad. My mom took care of appetizers and dessert. Good food and good company resulted in a great party.
Also today: a visit to the colourful studio exhibition of Hervé Martijn, organised by Galerie Dessers. Lovely small roads towards Avelgem and a remarkable house. I couldn't stay long, but long enough to get some inspiration. 

Last week I went to Rotterdam by train to visit a possible future location for work. It was nice to be outside and to see something different. I feel more like a globetrotter now.

Tomorrow I have one vernissage on my schedule … and a lot of work in the studio. I'm making an effort to create a blank canvas in my studio so that it can rearrange my artworks on my white walls. So many choices to make!
