Sandra Eterovic tagged me in this lovely cyber-parlour game – inviting people to reveal seven things about themselves. I’ve thought of seven things that feed my soul.
Silence – no television, no radio, no telephone, just listening. When I’m feeling stressed or tense it is often because there is too much noise. My particular dislike is of multiple sound sources in the same space – tv / radio / talking – and when it stops I feel instantly calmer.
Clouds – for looking at and contemplating, lying on the ground and gazing upwards and just thinking.
Water – for looking at and being in and listening to.
Spaces – open spaces, enclosed spaces, hidden spaces, curious spaces; the sound of spaces and the memories held by spaces.
Old things – pre-owned, lived in, well loved, forgotten about; the patina and palimpsest of age.

Other People's Art – how other people distil their ideas into reality; a painting, a sculpture, an installation, a piece of music.
People – my friends, my family, my partner, my children. People who create things/ make things/ do things/ write about things and people who have ideas. People I have known and people that I wish I had known.
Dear Reader - Please feel free to carry on the game and post your own 'seven things'. (And let me know so I can read them!)
