Artists have studios for several reasons, both practical and otherwise. But I think many, if asked, would volunteer that their studio gives them a creative locus, a sanctuary where they can take refuge, be it from the weather or unwelcome interruption. Peter Brown also has a studio, where he stores his materials and work, both his finished canvases, and those he consigns to his formidable 'do-over' pile. But he rarely uses it to actually work. Instead, Pete's always preferred to paint literally on the road, and out in the field. He says that it's only when the place, the light, the people and his brush upon the canvas all fall into sync that he truly feels alive, as a painter should be.
