Early Autumn in the studio
As we move into the early, flamboyant period of autumn it’s a good time to look back on summer and sift through the disorder accumulated in the studio.

I didn't want anyone or anything to interfere or disturb my intent, and so I took my first steps in seclusion while on a year long break away... Read More -
