@Caroline Turner here's a quick one. Needs more work though.

I'm back in Tunisia. Doing lots if sketching of ideas, which I may turn into paintings when I get back. All in between helping to organise an Electro swing evening. I was chating to the entertainment manager at the hotel club bar, and he asked me what music I like. I like a very wide range of music including progressive house, dance club music. But another favourite genre I like is Electro Swing. If you havnt heard of it before, imagine 1920s swing vocals, saxophone, and double base. Then bring it up to date with modern electronic heavy base, drums, and synthesiser keyboards. As its now the 2020s there's a big revival going on. Its very popular in France 🇫🇷 especially Paris along with the London clubs. There is a large group of French staying here at the moment. And they were talking about it. Jermyl the entertainment manager found out I knew a lot about it. So he asked me to help him organise an Elctro Swing evening. So we have been busy downloading and compiling music and track lists. All while doing some quick sketches, which the music has been inspiring me to do. I seem to have been given a new name by many of the staff here, who I get on well with. Because I hate the strong sum glare I have been wearing ski sunglasses. Very James bond like, so they have been calling me comander shades 😎. I have almost filled a sketchbook with doodles and painting ideas 💡 so hopefully they will make for some interesting if not amusing paintings.

working on lots of ideas. I have decided abstract painting, while intertesting, is not my inspirational style. the two paintings I worked on in Tunisia, are on display in the hotel. while fun to do, I probably wont repeat them, or continue in that style. but it was good for experience.

Back in the hotel in Tunisia for more adventures. My paintings are still displayed on the walls. 🙂
