Emma Cameron, ‘My studio’, April 2010. Photo: Emma Cameron. The oil painting end of the studio. The beautiful, huge, studio easel was given to me by an elderly artist friend fifteen years ago. The chest of drawers is for brushes, paints, and rags. As always, there are several works-in-progress on the walls. I’d like blank walls really, but when the paintings are wet they really need to be on the walls, out of harm’s way.
