New Year 2012 acting and painting

I havent forgotten - just going on with Hamlet - so much reading and checking. Just a faint hope to clarify one or two things that have bothered me over the years. 

The light in winter is awful, but there is always a panting sitting waiting for me to add a colour/shape.  I get fun out of treating a well known painting as thought it was the first of several in a sequance - I have one on the go but havent yet photographed it -  In the mean time here is one of my bowl pictures to add to the jolity of nations

I am trying to forget we are into a New Year - they come round too fast now ...

Thanks for the comments and congratulations to the actor of Jermyn street!  My partner's mum was Terrence Rattigan's cousin - small world. 

Acting is a strange craft - I suspect a lot of it is to do with being clever at doing as little as possible - 'the less I do the better my performance', said Louis Juvet - and then there is always the hypnotic effect of the golden section :8:13//1.62  approx..that confirs greatness even if there is little talent to go with it.  Helen of Troy was cursed with it I reckon. For relaxation am re reading Vanity Fair, a novel that goes at a gentle amble- I bet its heroin Becky Sharp had it too - what a little minx!
