Lynette Willoughby – Artist ….

Which order should I put the weekly work from that course? Does it matter??….

I found the first week 0f the Visual Poetry course almost unbearably exciting as it sparked off so many connections – every few pages of the Steven’s PowerPoint sent me off to collect something from around the house so collect something I might use in that week’s book – and I ended up with 13 items! Connections, connections, connections. The book was rather draft quality – I didn’t have time each week to work on the neatest/best presentation.
