So one customer, some passers by greetings and window browsers. This morning some friends popped in after their yoga class at the loft community hall and were taken by my Wolf moon and pier piece on wood. The rest of the day I drew, did some linocut editing, read and sat near a radiator when …
So Thursday, no shop but collating a range of studio ideas linked to voluntary work party at the sailing club and some possible photos to prompt sketches of box task.
