summer term week 7
Date: June 16th and 17th
Class Cancelled
On Monday Rob experienced a very severe sudden onset headache, and pain in his neck and across his upper chest. To cut a long story short, it landed him in Derrford. The diligent and hard working staff have ruled out the Really Bad Nasties, so he has not had a stroke or a heart attack. As I write they have not come up with a positive diagnosis for what actually caused it, but they treat this type of headache seriously and they are keeping him in while they attempt to find the cause.
So we apologise for the very late cancellation of class. I tried my best to contact everyone, with very little phone battery and even worse signal, and I can only hope that you received the message before making an unnecessary journey.
Thank you to everyone for letting me know you had received it, passing it on where you could, and especially for your kind comments!
Please check back here and your email for updates.

QuoteS of the week
"I can get excitement watching rain on a puddle. And then I paint it. Now, I admit, there are not too many people who would find that exciting. But I would.”
“Teaching people to draw is teaching people to look.”
“To me, the world's rather beautiful if you look at it. Especially nature.”
“I believe that the very process of looking can make a thing beautiful. It takes a long time to make it simple.”
“What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing.”
David Hockney
