New look for the first birthday

Dali House is celebrating its first birthday with a bit of renovation, but you just can’t get good decorators these days, can you? Where’s the quality, I ask you? As to the curator: I, your host and innkeeper, Paul Dorsey, was born in Burnley, northern England, raised just outside Toronto, Canada, and now live and work in Bangkok, Thailand.

Dali House
one year on

I was going to be an artist, but didn’t find a patron quick enough to save me from a life of journalism and the abject poverty that goes with it. Thank God blogging’s free.

The last time I picked up a paintbrush myself, the results were good but not nearly as good as they’d been back in college, so these days I only get creative with the blog and Photoshop.

My main blog is Dorseyland, but all the art stuff is here at the Dali House. Please don’t take anything here too seriously; this house is congenial, not collegiate. I’m more likely to act the fool than get academic.

Also, assume that all images are copyrighted — I try to give due credit and will speak up where I think extra caution is necessary.

You can contact me by clicking on “Get in touch” at the top of the menu. To take a tour of all of the Dorseyland provinces, board the electric tram here.
