Getting back to the studio....

St Pancras Hotel, London.



Istanbul, Turkey.













I haven’t posted since my Open Studios in early October.
After I closed my studio doors on the evening of Sunday 3rd October I went home to pack and the next day I flew to the UK to attend a family event.


Tate Modern - back wall exposed during construction for new addition.



















I was away for most of the month. In between visiting family and friends I saw some great art and great buildings. I also squeezed in a four-day trip to Istanbul where I saw more great art and great buildings!


Warehouse on River Trent - Nottingham, England.




Tacita Dean - Film installation.
Tate Modern

 I’ve been back in my studio for a couple of weeks now and, as is usual after a long break, have been finding it hard to know where to begin. (I am taking part in a two- person show in New York in the spring and have a large body of work to do between now and then.)

Aya Sofya. Istanbul.

I need a kick start to get the energy going in my studio and I’ve just got it – I’ve been asked to do a large Pier painting for next February’s Marin Showcase Home in Belvedere,CA. I’m working on it already and am having fun again!
