Recently, I have been going to a few weekend courses run by our local art gallery. When I booked I was of the opinion that these days in a studio would provide welcome relief from the frustrations of the working week. This has turned out to be an unimportant part of the experience, somewhat surprisingly. Even though I am not sure I will continue with some of the new techniques or continue to explore the work of some artists I have been introduced to, some element of the experience has been apparent in completely unconnected projects I will discuss later.
