Looking forward to my first open studio at the Mill. A real opportunity to get noticed by the good people of Derby. I will post more info on the event as it gets a bit nearer.
Artists, you should register with this website, it seems to be based in Berlin and it has a huge European following. A personal web page is available for free, although it can be upgraded for a small fee. Work can be posted into online exhibitions, either stills or video. There is also a cheap advertising service for real events that will be seen by people all over the universe.
I've been a lazy little blogger, nothing since February but that will change with a few entries in the near future. You know how it is, need to update website as well.
Welcome to my blog. I intend to use this page partially as a record of my artistic progress which really also links into my attempts at getting on the road to becoming self employed. It would also be nice to get feedback on my artwork and of course any offers of work or ideas for projects would be good. Oh! and for relaxation and fun!
My name is Miles Tebbutt, an artist living and working in Derby. With such an eclectic choice of cultural stimulation available it is hard to decide on all of my influences, yes, music, art, film, books, TV, these i suppose are a given but the experiences of life must surely play the biggest part. Let's not go into too much detail about said experiences, just look at my work. I think i'm probably a bit of a mixed up character, i'm a hippy but i'm a punk, i'm a mod but i'm a rocker, i've never enjoyed the middle of the road. Mixed feelings and ideas come out in my work and they tend to be happy and positive because i like to think that i usually am. Sometimes the dark side pokes its head through, but we've all been tempted by the dark side now and again, haven't we?
