Studios of Their Own: The Illustrator's Story
A pictorial behind-the-scenes look at the studio of James Oses
These newsletters are almost always about me, my thoughts, my feelings, my whining. So with the publication next month of my new book Studios of Their Own (you can pre-order it here) looming on the horizon, I thought you might be interested in a change from the usual nonsense.
Here then is a look by James Oses (who illustrated both this and our previous collaboration Rooms of Their Own) like to work, what he works with, whose work he likes to have around him, and all in his own words and pictures, starting with the key area of brushes, mugs, and pots (pictured top). And if you click on the Instagram post a little way down it will take you to a video of the fine chap in action on the Francis Bacon section of the book.
