My workspace
The other day Gracia responded to Fliss’s request to reveal her workspace. Gracia then in turn prompted me. So, here it is, my nook…
I don’t always work here; I’m pretty portable actually. All I need is my drawer with all my paints, brushes and pencils in it, oh, and my eraser and pencil sharpener. It’s particularly handy as I often follow the sun around the house, which means the paint dries faster and more importantly I can see the colours I’m working with.
Lisa, I thought I’d pop in your lovely squirrel so that you could say hello to him. He is actually on the way to our framer, but as this has been the case for well over a year now, he gets taken out of his flat storage space often. He enjoyed a spot on the bookshelf recently. He is much loved and can’t wait to have a permanent home on the wall. Jurate, you my also spot your beautiful print in these photos. It is also much loved and on the way to our framer.
Before I go, here's another inspiring workspace to see.
Hope you have an ace weekend. I’ll have some new watercolours to show you early next week including one of Agatha’s new best friend. After much deliberation, and studying of budgie body language, Gracia and I decided Agatha was a little lonely and needed a companion. Then we came across Claude; he’s a beautiful white and pale blue budgie. I’ll introduce you to him properly next week. I can promise it will be a joy as he is the most compelling and agile budgie there ever has been.





hello bright and cheery and potentially portable workspace !
and hello squirrel. was it really a year ago you flew across the ocean??
