Azure

This is a post to displace the melancholy one below, if anything else.

I finally went to Bondi Beach the other day with fellow resident artist B. Stepping off the bus we were greated by the most amazing blue azure sea I have ever seen. It was magnificent. The water from the shore to the farthest horizon looked like a sheet of silk dyed blue by God. And on the horizon line, a single oil tanker was cruising on the edge of the world where it meets the sky. Over excited, I dragged B. from one end of the beach to the other, skipping like a monkey. He humoured me, bless him.

In the two weeks since I have been here, now and again I feel a wholly gratuitous sense of happiness and independence. Soon I'll start making work again.
