The Old Butcher’s Studio, Brooklyn
The Old Butcher’s Studio is a working art space shared between myself and local artist and friend Mirra Whale. The studio is located in Brooklyn on the banks of the beautiful Hawkesbury River in the far north of Sydney. The Old Butcher’s Studio is a private workspace as well as a place we have begun teaching various drawing and printmaking classes. Classes are small and limited to six participants. Brooklyn (Hawkesbury River station) is a one hour train trip from central station or one hour drive from the city. The studio is a 2 min walk from Hawkesbury River station.
