6 MONTHS TO GO

Christmas 2012 and looking forward to the world trip. Handing my notice in at work will be the day when things start to become real. Started to gear myself up for painting plein air, which could become my only source of income while in Europe. If selling a painting is the only stress I'll have to endure....can't wait!!!

73 WEEKS (APPROX) TO GO

Not doing too well with the blog and lost track of countdown now!
Planning to cycle the coast to coast in May, need to get into training.
Bought a new domain name ...looking for a decent website DAVIDFRENCHART.COM
Off to Haworth for the weekend, pub crawl imminent.

Approximately 90 weeks to go (lost track)

Got some cards published and set to do the art fair next year, maybe Bristol in spring but definately Manchester in October. New plan is to pack in work slightly earlier and drive around the UK in the vw camper before we go off cycling. Cheaper than living in the house and it will get us in the swing of things to come. Also going to load up the van with my paintings and sell or drop them off at any gallery that'll take them on nthe way.

96 weeks to go before I cycle around the world

Still looking for a publisher for my paintings but hoping to exhibit soon.
Almost finished slating the roof of the new extension, we're hoping to rent the house out next year so that we can save more money and get rid of things we don't need...I can feel a big car boot coming on. There's not much that I want to keep apart from my hundreds of paintings.

97 WEEKS TO GO

Application came out of the blue from Bondi beach in Australia, asking me if I want to enter the painting competition...so all I need to do now is send a cd with images and some cash.
