in which the fish struggles with words
Since I seem to have become utterly devoid of ideas for blogposts I thought I would choose some random images and post them.
This winter seems to stretch onwards, and I am enjoying the consistency and exrtremeness of it. It rains and then it doesn't and then it rains, again. Amazing!
It is the coldest winter for a decade. I love it most of the time, except at work the heating is inadequate, and I often come home with tired shoulders from trying to be warm.
I love the light. So oblique and clear. The sea is so green and icelike. The sky hard and blue.
Here I am painting. Well, here are my charming feet encased in shoes so you cant see the finny bits.
It was said this week that I had been seduced by turquoise and sapphire. This is true, and I am aware of this.
But I cannot attend to my charcoal practice at present, and will stay immersed in blue, even if PhD students feel that I have given myself over to a marketable force.
Tis true, but I feel safe in there, and that's the only place I do feel safe sometimes.

IS that you Miss Fish in the last photo - what a luscious photo! Deserves framing I say!
And the first one took my breath away and the second photo inspires me!
good to hear from you.
the top photo looks cold and lovely.
and blue isn't a 'marketable force' for you, i don't think. possibly a different kind of force.
Fifi is that you in the last photo? What a great shot! I need to email you about one of your photos in Flickr."The Monaro" Love it. Looks just like where I used to live.By the way, the red and aqua blue are my favourite colour combinations at the moment.Looks like its working for you too!!
Sea-heifer my &*()&!
You have gorgeous lats!
:)
Goodness me that looks like a chilly thing to do! At least it would be if that were Scotland in the early spring. Brrr!
But it's a lovely picture all the same. I'd recognise you anywhere....
are you swimming in your nightie again?
god almighty...who's that in a nightie?
Wow, that image of you in the ocean is absolutely beautiful! I love it!
And I'm a bit jealous of your winter weather since we're slogging through another summer here.
How are things going?
Love that pic of you in your beloved ocean.
I see nothing wrong with being seduced by sapphire & turquoise!
sea-heifer? I certainly wouldn't use that term. Curvaceous. Bodacious. Or if you get little crude.... You're a MILF.
I don't go for the girlies...but that photo is making me question my sexuality.
hello all.
I am in both nightie AND dress, actually. one beneath the other. hich possibly demonstrates why my daughter is reluctant to acknowledge me out in the surf.
It wasn't too chilly, really.
I wasn't fishing for compliments re the heifer, I usrt reminded myself of Europa and the bull except being both rolled into one. If that makes sense.
hmm, maybe not.
Bryan: youre kidding me, right? It must be the lats. LOL :-)
Concerning Mr. Bryan's comments, maybe it's like the Jimmy Buffett song with the lines, "Changes in latitudes / Changes in attitudes!"
I'm still waitin' for the entry about Sydney's ocean baths, although I saw the site you referenced.
You'd never catch me walking into the sea unless the air temperature was at least 40 degrees celcius.
I think you look very sexy and I have NEVER had a thing about sea heifers - so don't talk nonsense.
Hope it warms up for you soon. I find cold very wearisome indeed. At least you are heading the right way - it's downhill all the way weatherwise from now on in the UK.
The lats are workin it. The booty is too! Yummy!
