Mon Atelier

Today we have a "studio tour" on the "Daily Painters" site.
So here's a collage of my studio.

Want this studio? It's for sale with the adjacent property.
Send me an e-mail for more information.

Yes, my studio is FAB! But - for over twenty years I did not have any studio and it is only since last year that I was able to move into this converted barn. And of course I LOVE it! I give painting classes here, too. That's why there are the tables and all the chairs. Unfortunately though we have not yet managed to install a heating system, which means I'm back to our dining table at the moment because it is freezing in the studio. One thing really puzzles me - I have (nearly) always painted huge pictures in tiny spaces and now that at last I have this vast studio I paint tiny little daily paintings....??? Is there a deeper reason behind that?

Hi Liza! My studio only looks clean because I have not worked in it for 6 months. And I did not photo the flat files which I could NOT get to if I wanted to for all the boxes and canvases leaning against and on top of them.
In contrast your generous comments really apply to your own space! I had a great space like that once, too!
Thanks for your gracious comments on my website.
Keep painting!
