Here’s the thing about Edinburgh: With the lack of light in winter it’s really hard to find a space which inspires me. I am not a fan of artificial lighting. Give me an abundance of sunshine please!
While I am lucky enough to have space enough for a dedicated studio, that space is a small box room without windows and the natural light I crave. I was raised to be imaginative though, so when I find inspiration wavering, I visualise myself in one of my favourite artists studios.
Here are my top 5:
OKUDA SAN MIGUEL

Sebastian Ariel Curi

Malika Favre

Camille Walala

Dan Santino

Jerry Saltz, Art Critic once stated that ‘the decor and environment of your studio will ultimately “bleed into your imagination” thereby giving the artist room to think, experiment and create without apology. In doing so, ideas can evolve, take shape and finally come to fruition as and when they’re ready.
