drawing board - essential (painting it red isn't)

radio - also pretty essential - station optional although I recommend radio 4.

monitor - for listening to the little ones when they're asleep back at the house.

acrylic paints, brushes, water - nothing special, and all a bit messy. Never trust a tidy artist.

Here's my studio - in a log cabin at the end of my garden which I share with my daughter who has a sensory room next door (lots of groovy flashing lights and bubble tubes) - it's where I paint and, more often than not, just sit and listen to the radio whilst staring into space. Come and sit with me a while.

Heater - without this, in the winter I may die.
