Health Update from Walter — 7 March 2020

Here is the email I wrote to family, friends and colleagues

Hi everybody …

You may have heard, or this may be news. I am in Christchurch hospital awaiting bypass surgery on my heart, probably in about a week. This might come as a shock to you, as it has to me, but I’m coming to terms with it. The prognosis is good and I’m glad we caught the problem early enough. I’m well supported by Kate, family, friends, colleagues and a great medical team. I have been told recovery will take four to six months.

Right now I’m fine and I’m sorting out my work commitments so I can focus on recovery in the months ahead. I am “on leave” from the training and will put all supervision work on hold. I will contact people I’m working with more directly. I’m planning to focus on my recovery. I’m looking forward to re-engaging with the work I love and with people I love. I’m sure the anticipation of reconnecting will be healing for me.

Thanks for all the good wishes so far!

Love Walter

Technical problems with WordPress on this site.

I have managed too get the blog going — with the help of people at Jetpack and Dreamhost

So good to have it back including the images that were lost for a long time!

    1. The images don’t show up properly since I changed the Media Library address — now can’t change it back.
    2. Viagra ads when site is accessed through search or RSS
    3. Can’t login via the WordPress.org login.

 

I’m working on all three!!

Emails to Dreamhost and WordPress on the go.

Digital Sketches – desire of the pen

Since my project ThousandSketches I have continued to sketch.  Digital painting – but I like the term sketch.  Many of these are on my art website. That site is still there but I’ve deprecated it and tried to integrate it into this blog.  It’s a bit of a mess. Still, this blog becomes an art blog when you click the Art Category. Digital Sketches delivers just my own work.

I’m warming up to posting more.  I’ve beed reflecting on the delicacy of nature, and the crudeness of humanity’s sometimes beautiful desire to transcend itself.  This began with the earth crosses…  natural textures of landscape cut by something I think of as human presence, fast and bold.

That’s 12 years ago. “Green Peace”

Here is a recent one – not in the earth cross series but maybe in a new one.

Maybe it is called “Science”, or “Civilisation”.  Playing on the theme of putting borders or frames around art.

Do I put these in the container?  or are they better left wild?

Itchy pen.

Get a grip on a few things

I will be conducting a personal development weekend beginning the evening of Friday 26 to Sunday 28 April 2019

This is a great opportunity to take a new step in your personal development.  This will be a time to attend fully and deeply to what is important to you.  If you come as a couple, attend to your relationship in a supportive group. The workshop will help you focus, break through blocks, incubate new plans, make promises to yourself.

I have been conducting these weekend workshops regularly for the past few years and I’m looking forward to this one, I expect it will be a special, productive experience. See below for more details and a link to the flyer. I hope to see you aboard!

That was the email I just sent out,  I like the subject line!  It is not quite a USP — I don’t have that yet.  Maybe there is a need for a USP and then these occasional evocative lines.  What would a copy writer say?

Here is the link to the flyer.
