First day of my residency started today. It was a bit of a slow start, my wife needed the car to attend a course and I had to look after my son all day. I went into the studios anyway with my son in tow (he's only 2 and he tires me out but he's great fun)
I picked up the keys and was shown all the things I need to know. The other artists that were there were really lovely, especially Sarah who made us both feel well at home.
I stood staring at the space trying to envisage my stuff in there but it's quite difficult. I took some measurements and the plan for tonight is to do some drawings of different layouts so I can get straight on with moving in tomorrow. Or I could do the usual and just turn up with all my stuff and cram it in.
I have to be up pretty early in the morning to pick up my equipment e.t.c from wirksworth, Derbys and move it over to Long Eaton.
I am itching to get settled in and start back on some paintings that I started recently.
