Final Show Images

One week until the show opens.  Here are some photos of the final installation.

Near the Journey's End...

Well, the work is on the wall - feels great to have it finished.  Looking forward to seeing the rest of the work in the show.

Thanks to those people who helped me to put it together.

Vinyl Lettering Arrived

Okay, so the elements are pretty much all there. Will be great to see it all come together.

Shelves Finished - What Next?

So much to do, but feels great to be getting through the list. The shelves look good. Hopefully they'll look good on the wall too.
Next step vinyl lettering!

DIY Central

Today i have been wood working to create the shelving for my books - it's going well so far.

Back-up Books Arrived

So my back-ups have also arrived.
The originals came from Blurb and these came from Lulu. Lulu were very fast!

 

Books Arrived!

Wow. The books are finally here. Some good points about them, some bad. Will let you judge for yourself when you see them. On the whole I'm pleased.

 

Book Shelf Designs

Well, after two days wiped out by man flu I'm back on the road again.  Now that the books have been sent to print (and in theory are in transit as I type), it's down to the task of how the books will be displayed.  Here is a idea how the books look together:

Books Ordered!

Finally, after days of frantic activity, all ten books have been ordered!  It's a real relief to have them done.  Just hope they are printed quickly and error-free.

More Redrafting

It feels great to be in the swing of writing. The text I am working on is by no means epic, but the more time I spend with it the more I love the process.
This is now the third and hopefully final draft of the text for the Final Show.
Yesterday I spent the whole day on the covers for the books. It's strange how much work is involved in what I imagined to be a simple idea.
As a distraction I have been reading Woolf's writing diaries. It has been an excellent read. A real insight into the mind of an author. Makes me want to read all her books.
