[Update March 2010 : Read a review of - Year One on Bicyclistic ]
In short: Bicyclistic is photos and paintings, with words from time to time.
Longer description:
From Dublin, I’m a full-time artist who’s done a lot of cycling, especially long-distance touring, e.g. solo trips across America and Europe.
Since 2001 I’ve been blogging in various guises, and 8 years later I found myself wanting to go back and do it all differently. In other words it was time for a new blog.
Bicyclistic is my personal blog, where I tell the stories of painting, of cycling, and the things I think of while standing at bus-stops. It’s also where I post just photos. And sometimes there’s a dog.
I’ll also post details of any upcoming sales of paintings. I like to think there’ll be specials every week, but then I also like to think about nothing but squares for hours on end.
If you’re interested in details about me you can have a read of 101 things about me that I posted on another blog, called IrishKC. Or you can just wait until I turn them into 101 blog posts here.
There’s also some personal background on American Hell, my cartoon blog which shall continue as normal.
In some ways Bicyclistic is a continuation of the story that was my move to a cottage in Donegal in September 2008, and in other ways it’s just a continuation of some humorous posts I frequently posted on IrishKC - such as this smattering:
• A Phone Call to an Irish Mother
• A Bad Pint: Here Be Dragons
• I’m Reminded of the British Police by Valentine’s Day in the USA
• A U2 Story: Dublin in 1979 and 1987
• Going Out The In Door
• An Irish Odyssey in Kansas City
• History of a Pub, An Irish Pub
• Readying for Ireland on the Streets of Kansas City
• Fun in America
• Meeting Maradona
• The Seagull Has Landed
• Travelling by Train in Ireland
Thanks,
We’ll talk again,
E. gan F.
