Today is the day

Well this morning I started looking for a studio,by this evening any space with running water would do.I can’t believe there is no studios available around my town…God I’m already frustrated.Oh well guess Cherry, my partner, is going to have to put up with me painting in our flat for a while. I’m going to advertise in free ads to see if anyone has a space I can use….fingers crossed.I’ve checked out the compititions coming up early next year and I’ll maybe enter 1 or 2 of them. I have no chance of winning but the experiance should help me. I’ve also been reviewing my old work, mostly crap but one or two maybe worth keeping on the plus side that gives me loads of canvas’s to work on. Now to the crux of the matter, what do I paint on those canvas’s? Should I study the market and paint accordingly or should I stay true to myself and continue to explore the things that really interest me? This is not easily answered and knowing me Iwill fall between two stools and fail completly.The thing is I need to get a body of work together, one that I want be embarissed to show. Oh well, enough for now.ps any tips or hints on starting up would be gratefully recieved. Cheers
