In the UK preparing for expo... which actually means not doing anything till Tuesday and looking at other art in the meantime. The Giacometti at the NPG was amazingly dull for so great an artist. The drawing s from Venice show at the Ashmolean pretty lacklustre.

Liked this little Degas from the collection though so Im not all critical.

At the theatre - Farinella and the King, fantastic!! - the guy I'd been chatting to in the seat next to me caught this carnation when Farinelli threw them to the audience, presented it to me and said I must put it in my next painting. Here it is as a mnemonic.

Very homesick, very frightened of my show..
