Welcome to my blog from the Welcome Trust

20130417-225512.jpg

Well, I was seeing whether the mobile WordPress app would work and it did so this is my first blog post. A test but in a way that’s the point, isn’t it. My daughter Georgia and I went to the Welcome Trust Collection in Euston, London recently. Georgia is doing a lot of work in her fine art foundation year on the body, and being lateral and creative, she thought of going to a science/medicine museum.

If you haven’t been I’d highly recommend it. There are lots of cabinets with drawers you can open and bizarre exhibits from around the world. This is lateral in more ways than one of course. I’m inching towards launching a writing blog and ultimately a website and this is part of the journey, an unexpected chance branch (like forgetting to get off at the right tube stop and having to take a different line) and maybe synergy. Start the way I mean to go on.

The picture is of an artwork exploring body image. It speaks for itself. The guy standing next to the artwork just happened to be there, but I like the way his posture and jacket make him echo the shape. Another random synergy.

Next time round I’ll work out how to wrap the text round the picture.
