Olives are one of the many ways adults know they are loved. Grapes too. But I’ve been thinking about olives. Olives to eat. Olives in Dirty Martini’s. And how if you say “olive hue” it sounds a lot like “I love you”. Olives have to be picked from the olive trees carefully – then preserved…

Here’s the question: “Do you keep separate sketchbooks for different subjects/projects/media or do you use one sketchbook for all sorts of art experiments and ideas?” My answer: I used to keep one sketchbook but I found it hard to find the bit of research I needed…
