The end of a very long road: yesterday I successfully defended my PhD thesis 🥳🎉🍾 I am so grateful to my examiners and to the many people who helped me get here, most of all my incredible supervisors. I share my acknowledgements as it truly was a team effort ❤️

@traceya_davison Thank you!!

Less than a week until the viva and I am feeling very grateful for: A3 paper, the Senate House Library’s late opening hours, and Taylor Swift’s absurdly long new album 🫠📚

Does anyone have a copy of a Getty Library Grant application that they would be happy to share with me? Or any advice on the application process? Hoping to plan a research trip for next spring to work on my final PhD Chapter on Joan Mitchell and any advice much appreciated!

Turns out there's these things called Sand Spheres for zen gardens, sensory kind of things.

Anyone tried this with a Neolithic carved stone ball??

And yes, I'm serious.

Alt-text: a series of textured balls which leave intricate patterns when rolled in sand.

BREAKING NEWS: A mother who was sentenced to 28 months for illegally ending their pregnancy is to be released from prison.

We echo the judges’ statements that this is a case that calls for compassion, not punishment, and are delighted with this decision.
