A Visual Narrative Through Art: Autobiographical & Conceptual Fine Art
Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.
Not to trust so readily. As a child I trusted my family, more specifically, my parents.
However, they were the least trustworthy people in my life. I looked up to them for guidance, love, encouragement, emotional growth.
My parents didn’t give me any of these things.
But, as a child I did trust my parents. So, the lesson for me is 🤔…
What are your favorite types of foods?
Oh gosh!!!
I love just about all foods 😋
I enjoy tasting all the different flavours, traditions, and the local ingredients from all the countries I visit.
So, really, I love all foods.
Yum…now I’m hungry 🤔😁😂
How often do you walk or run?
I can’t run, but I can walk
I can’t stand, but I can dance
Due to spinal complications which required major surgery;
Thoracic spinal fracture
Lumbar disc protrusions
Double cervical discectomy and fusion
Cervical spinal osteophytes removal
I couldn’t run away, but I walked away, and now I’m dancing.
Keep smiling 😁, keep dancing 💃, keep safe.
Do you see yourself as a leader?
Do I see myself as a leader 🤔…no, not really.
I was a college lecturer for twenty years, so if that makes me a leader then maybe so.
What’s your favorite word?
Hmmmm…. My favourite word has to be ‘discombobulated’
It is a word that represents me to a tee, well, it did!
I often felt in a state of confusion, disorientation, anxiety, about something, but never really knowing of what.
I love the sound of the word; discombobulated! It rolls off the tongue wonderfully. It has a certain sense of humour about it.
Hopefully, my new favourite word will become; ‘recombobulated’ 🤞🤗😂
What are you doing this evening?
Chilling on the sofa. Went to Chepstow Race course on Sunday for a music festival, and I’m still exhausted 🤣. Too much rum and dancing!
Name the professional athletes you respect the most and why.
The professional athlete I respect the most has to be Sir Mo Farah.
One of Britains most celebrated track athletes. I respect him, not only for his athletic achievements, but also for his strength, resilience, and spirit with reference to his childhood traumas.
A truly remarkable man.
How do you relax?
How do I relax?
Potter in my garden: weather dependant…always raining in Wales!
Reading: migraine dependant.
Make Love: hormone dependant.
Spend time with family: I don’t have any.
Chill out with friends: they are all bloody married and busy with hubby.
Go on holiday: no one to go with.
Cooking: would love to cook for others, not just for myself.
Painting: keeps me from my bed for days.
Writing my memoir: emotionally draining.
So, what do I do to relax? Jump in the hot tub with a glass of wine 🫧🫧🍷😍
If you had to give up one word that you use regularly, what would it be?
I cannot answer this question 🤔.
There are many words that I use regularly that I would rather not use, but I don’t think I can give up any of them at the moment. They are relevant. So I won’t bore you with my endless list.
So, it’s not a matter of giving up one word, it’s more about not having the need to use a specific ‘word‘.
If that makes any sense? 🤔🤪
Are you holding a grudge? About?
Am I holding a grudge? No
I have experienced some awful traumas in my life.
But do I hold a grudge? No
I was the victim, they were the perpetrators.
Do I hold a grudge? No
You cannot heal if you hold a grudge.
So, No, I do not hold a grudge.
I am a survivor, I am healing.
That’s because I don’t hold a grudge.
Well, that’s my thoughts 🤔
