studio 2

This is studio A13 at Westgate Studios that I used to inhabit! When we all moved out of the Artsmill, and into the studios on Westgate in Wakefield city centre, there was a lot of work to be done on our studio spaces.
The walls needed whitewashing, and floors sanding and painting with floor paint.
One particular day, I remember sanding the floor, and creating a dust-storm! So bad it set off the fire alarm! Ian came knocking on my door to tell me. I had no idea, the noise of the sander obliterated the alarm's noise.
Happy days!

Studios - 1

And speaking of studios, this was my first one, in the defunct Artsmill. From 2006. A lovely space, with wooden floors, and as the name suggests, in an old mill.
I was right up on the top floor, with no lift. A fantastic view over the outskirts of the city, and Chantry Chapel. Lovely, but very cold in the wintry weather. Am hoping to be slightly warmer in my new studio!
