Farewell For Now

Farewell For Now ...

It’s the end of an era for me! For a decade my Blog has been the place where I shared my life’s stories in detail - my inspirations, my artworks and the meanings behind them, my exhibitions and publications, my successes, my travels, my struggles, and my thoughts. But for the past three years I haven’t written a word ... I haven’t even visited. It’s become increasingly obvious that societally our attention span has shortened significantly and there are very few left who enjoy spending a chunk of their day reading the musings of an artist. On social media we are constantly entertained and over the years I’ve watched posts and video clips get shorter and shorter because folks get frustrated and bored; they want that gratification quickly. When I first joined the online world as a professional we were advised to keep videos and posts under 15 mins, then years later it was 4 mins, then a few years ago it became 1 min, and now it’s within 15 seconds. There just doesn’t seem to be a place for Blogs like this anymore. I’ll be continuing my journey as a chronically ill neurodivergent Artist and Mineral enthusiast on my other platforms. I would be so honoured if you’d join me there! Thank you so much for your support! ❤️
