I get out of bed, get in my car and head to the studio, I then drive back home and get dressed!
My day is started at 9:00 am with a coffee from my favourite coffee machine, it tells me to "enjoy my drink" I like him, he's very polite.
I browse through my CD collection and choose a comedy CD. When I paint comedians I like to listen to them as I work, it inspires me as an artist and also helps my material evolve, I always keep a note pad handy just in case I think of a funny.
As I work I sometimes lose myself and the time flies by. I always make sure I take regular breaks, I think it's very important as looking at art work constantly can tarnish it, coming back after a break makes the piece look fresh. Once the day is over I go back home and check my emails to see if there are any gigs about and if there is I'll travel and perform.To paint then perform on the night makes the perfect day, to me life is about making yourself happy and those around you. My paintings and performing do that.
Life couldn't be better.
