Studio Visit
I had the enormous pleasure this week of welcoming Andrew and Luda to my studio in Dunbar. They had made a special trip from London to choose a painting to add to their already impressive collection.
I have been a professional artist for nearly 40 years now and have sold many paintings – but there is nothing like meeting face to face and having the opportunity to make a proper connection with a collector – and I know Andrew and Luda felt the same way. So thank you to both of you and I look forward to seeing ‘Wintry Birds’ in it’s new home.
