Moleskine Diary number 38, A new beginning

The first page of Moleskine number 38, I still get excited by a new sketchbook, the sense that this could be it! The moment where I feel satisfied, realistically I know that won't happen but the journey towards that goal keeps me going. Is there anything more obnoxious that an artist who is in love with his work? Ugh!

Most of my work is personal, sometimes I try and distance myself from too much exposure by generalising. But this one ; I admit fully that it is all about me! I have a large invisible entourage of neuroses, psychoses and various other symptoms of living bruises.

This image isn't necessarily a representation of a physical event, I kept getting this image when everything was going wrong recently. It was the 'they' from a previous post colluding to spoil things for me. Not only did 'they' block my way they threw stones to push me back and indeed hurt me. I thought by giving them faces I could exorcise them!

like most people my life is shadowed by a mysterious group of beings known collectively as they. They have a nebulous, shape shifting quality that I can never pin down. Whenever anything goes wrong with my life it is 'they' that had a hand in it. They cause rumours, whispers and conspiracy theories at every turn. 'They' are controlling, silent and dispassionate.

i read a story in a newspaper recently about a man who scouted for women in the lonely hearts pages, he'd invite them to a romantic picnic, listen as they poured their troubles out and at the end of a perfect afternoon would dispatch them without a second thought. He rationalised his actions by saying that he saved them from lonely sad lives after giving them a good time, it was an altruistic act of ultimate kindness you see!
