End of an era – bye bye washpit

Well, after almost 20 years of having my workshop at Washpit Mill, i’ve had to move. The mill went into receivership a year ago and has now been bought for re-development, so what was once my workshop will no doubt soon be someones house. It was great being there for so long, it allowed me to firmly establish my creative roots in the valley whilst occasionally share the space with many other guest artists such as Dave Young, David Mayne, Martin Smith, Jim Bond, Brendan Hesmondhalgh, Doctor Simpo, Wayne Markwort and Pat Walls. In fact i’ve had such an enjoyable time there that i made a photo book all about it, email me if you’d like to buy a copy.
