The Course: Eight month Diploma in fine art
The location: Cyprus College of Art, Lempa (www.artcyprus.org)
The idea: To improve on current art skills, gain new ideas from new sources and have quality dedicated time to build up a body of art work
Some current influences: Gustav Klimt for his use of gold, Henri Matisse for his use of pattern and colour, Lawrence Alma-Tadema for his richness and attention to detail
Art materials going in the suitcase (Oil paints on on their way by boat as they aren't allowed on plane):
Canvases (various shapes and sizes)
Plain canvas fabric
Wooden shapes
Clear plastic (to paint on not to cover painting surfaces!)
Lots of sketchbooks (Favourite; Laporello concertina sketchbooks)
Watercolours
Tons of brushes
Drawing pens and pencils
All I have to do now is fit some clothes in. If anyone can think of anything vital I have forgotten...now is the time to say!

Hope you arrived ok and settling in. Weather must be better than here, rain all day Sunday. Can you do a half day shift on oct 29th?
Doreen,
I'm sunburnt already, and strangely, no I'm not available for work!

Are you sure you'd not rather be in drizzly Chatham? There are cute cats here too you know!
