THE ARTIST IN RESIDENCE 11 : 'BRAESIDE'

 BRAESIDE : A HOUSE FROM 1959


Braeside is a house from 1959..

this fireplace is a favourite original feature..

along with the oak floor and skirting boards..

here you can see work by artists and makers..

the papier-mache pieces are all by Virginia..



boats from Walberswick..


what  no vinyl..



in the entrance hall..




a couple of early Virginia's..

next time on..

THE ARTIST IN RESIDENCE

a bench made by the previous owner..

adventures in terracotta..

THE ARTIST IN RESIDENCE 10



 in the artist's bedroom..

on a chair in the corner..

where he throws his clothes..

a t-shirt catches the evening light..


an early influence..

it is the Ditko reference that has triggered the photo..

 hence this post..




one of the artist's creations..


regular bots will know that..

the artist has never outgrown his early influences..

and so the BABE has come to be..

her super power is her femininity..

she is a woman..

and as she is a character..

in the imagination of the artist..

she may have no need of a womb..

for this episode anyway..

but later..

who knows ?

without a womb there may never be another issue..
