My Creative Space


I don't even know where to begin with my creative space today....


After the market last weekend, and working on bits and pieces for the upcoming exhibition, my house is strewn with remnants of various completed, and work in progress projects.

Add in the normal chaos of my life, with the comings and goings each day, and appointments and tasks, and constantly dragging things around the house, and dealing with Houdini Dog and Bastard Cat (who woke me up at least three times lastnight).... and I feel like I'm either in the middle of a cyclone, or living in some sort of alternate universe!


My task for today is to try to sort out some of this mess before I have to employ Peter Walsh and his clean up crew.

I really think that they should resurrect that old show Your Life on the Lawn with Lissanne Oliver. I'd be a perfect candidate!

The home of (hopefully much nicer and cleaner) creative spaces....

  11. One woman's mess, is another woman's sanctuary! All good mess leads to creativity. Loads of ways we can put a positive spin on this one. Love your space.

  12. I hope Mellissa wasn’t making that up about messy spaces and geniuses – because if it’s true I must be absolutely brilliant. Seriously I wish my studio were only as messy as yours, mine is absolute chaos at the moment. I mean really chaos; it makes your look like a minimalist museum!

  13. I have a theory that only architects and interior designers have clean creative spaces. The rest of us have to make do with organised creative chaos!
