ArtLab, the art studio v2.014

My recent move back to the wonderful capital city of Truro has been quite an upheaval, although everything has gone very smoothly leaving my old studio behind on The Lizard was a big disruption to my work.

Obviously my main priority following the move was to get a new studio constructed as soon as possible, and I am happy to say that within a few short weeks of moving in my new little city ArtLab is complete and is now almost ready for use.

Thankfully the same company that built my previous studio could fit me in to their very busy schedule at short notice, and following my design brief to the letter they have built me a rather fabulous bespoke building which will serve a a great workspace. Obviously due to my city location this studio had to be a little more compact but its neat lines and the round window give it a distinct look and inside it immediately feels familiar.

Here are some photos of the build.

As with my previous studio in Gweek, Shane from JustMagic – who specialises in timber buildings, has done an outstanding job. Whereas my previous studio was raised up high with a commanding view this building is tucked away and protected from the elements, I have christened it my ArtLab and I am sure that many great things will be born in it. Further details of Shane’s work can be found on the link below.
