The Colour of Music, Rebecca Price
I am now nearly a week into my residency here at St George’s Arts. The launch went well with a nice mixture of people, and on Friday I had my first open studio day.
All the other Fridays I have managed to book musicians to come in and play for a couple of hours, so that I can draw them. It’s been amazing how many people have offered to take part; they are mainly local amateurs but also a couple of professionals. But this first day was more for getting the feel of the place on my own.
It was lovely having a whole day working away from home. I hadn’t realised quite how bogged down I’ve become by the computer; sometimes spending half the morning fiddling around with emails, so it was very liberating to be somewhere where I had no choice but to concentrate on my work for several hours…..
