2021 Greetings and Saatchi Art updates from Paul Taggart's studio

Thank goodness we are as disciplined as we are; for we could be so easily distracted from our work in the studio, as the local feral cat goes about her daily perambulations, striding along our verandah, peering through the windows and glazed doors – we could set our clocks by her routine. Then there are the gadabout pheasants, strutting their stuff throughout our garden – currently comprising a couple of handsomely-plumed males, accompanied by a harem of females. A devoted robin keeps us company throughout the day, hopping from a fence post to the honeysuckle tumbling over the fence beside our dining room window, as we start the day at breakfast – not that the collared wood- pigeons like it much, as he ‘squabbles’ them out of the garden and ‘shoos’ them back into the trees. As we say, much to distract us, were we to let it!
But work we must, it is in our DNA to create – me at my easel for hours on end, multiple paintings on the go at any one time, writings to re-work, log-burning stove to keep alight. Eileen at her various desks and computers, videos in the making and processing, manuscripts to type-up, tutorials to plan, communications to respond to. Busy, busy, busy - but never arduously so, because all of our creative output brings us into contact with those worldwide with whom we share a passion – that of creativity and art.
The pandemic has had a bearing on the way all of our lives will shape-up in 2021, both creatively and personally and one thing is for sure, none of us need reminding just how precious life is - which is why we say please take care of yourself, stay safe to keep well – this comes with all best wishes from Eileen and myself,
