Studio

The studio at my home gets wonderful morning light, so I obviously enjoy painting mornings.  Tess, the ridgeback and Kujo, the doberman, will spend hours on their blankets while I paint.

I deliberately have not included the usual kettle and fridge to make tea or coffee. Ideally I spend about 6 hours a day painting, more if  I’ve become engrossed in the creative process, which happens very easily. 

I find the deliberate act of getting out of the studio to break for a good cuppa helpful to order my thoughts, and structured time helps me be more productive.  There are however many days where such breaks aren’t even contemplated.
