Field trip - Part 4

Here's the next addition in the cool-artist-environs posts! :-)


Richard Jesse Watson's studio is a fervent mixture of diverse, creative sundries.

Art and objects galore!

We enjoyed poking around and looking at *everything* - from art books to original art to sketchbooks to experimental pieces.

Every inch was filled with fun, and 'stuff'. (Like mine is filled with stuff. Just not as fun of stuff. And mine's not nearly as large so that it *can* be filled with so much fun stuff. [Insert pout?]).

We asked lots of questions and got enthusiastically answered and shown ever so many wonderful things and exposed to new and interesting ideas -

Like a whole counter full of objet d'art (or rather found objects being transformed into flying saucers... Why not??)
Maybe if I feed my studio more, it will grow up big and tall like Richard's...?

Such a fascinating place, could spend hours getting lost in there. I love how seeing an artists space gives another take on their character.

This was so much fun. Thank for taking us along. I am now sitting here with a head full of spinning top ideas and nowhere to put them!

Thanks for the tag-along, Tara.
About feeding your studio...just be very careful not to give it junk food or you may end up with something like the muddle I have!

Just curious -- did you get any new insights from Richard about egg tempera painting?
