_Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Abba- Happy New Year
(Man, Abba are dark!)

I hope you had a restful Christmas and New Year

Here are the last  'Place and Escape' paintings from the 'Hidden Islands' series that I shall be posting on Reside.

Home stretch to the end of the residency then, very sad for me. I will do a big round up at the very end, evaluating what was good, amazing and fantastical about the website but not yet, oh no, I have paintings to post in the mean time...

Other stuff

The Moss Haired Girls are finished and up on my website. The third edition of The Collector Zine: Moss Haired Girls will appear in January.

So while getting on with these painting pairs I am also starting a whole new series of Works about Robert ford (as depicted in the book/film above). This will be extended out a bit so it's a project that I plan to spend a fair bit of time on and it may cross over onto the Reside blog, well, up until my time on Reside ends anyway, *sobs*.

    Corinna Spencer
    Contemporary artist, mainly painting.

    I am interested in the fragments of stories that can be found in historical images. I make paintings and assemble them to create new stories of mystery, romance and drama. Hinting at the old and more recent. The Nostalgic and romantic.

    The Delicate risqué images of Victorian postcards, the circus, erotic and romantic text: Old photographs and stories, like these, allow our imaginations to tease at the edges of the scene and the long gone strangers depicted.

    I am also currently exploring romantic and erotic texts which is forming the main theme of the work on this blog
