When looking around our new house, we had observed the small dusty room next to the bathroom and had thought - storage. But with a much needed new velux, and a better amount of light coming in it started to say - studio, or rather, small garret studio, which is what I like to create stuff in - a cocoon of a place full of collected, inspirational stones/postcards/books etc.
After unearthing completed paintings and works in progress I've amassed it all - or most of it as there's still stuff lurking in the garage - in the space and it's probably the best room I've had to work it - beats our bedroom at the last house . . .
Projects: I'm just finishing a commissioned painting, as ever laid on top of a recycling emporium picture, using recycled paints - I found a fantastic box full of acrylics at our local Emmaus; perfect timing as my last lot were fast reducing down to various non-inspiring browns and greens.
An idea for a novel is also stomping about in my head - the first threads of a prequel to Londonia, so I'll what it's like writing in there too. Think it'll work, especially with rain pattering on the window. Might have to install a mini wood burner to really get the feel, or perhaps just a kettle and tea apparatus.
