atelier

a friend who is also a very talented painter invited me to the atelier recently and to me it was an almost religious experience. the smell of oil color and canvas, the brushes, colors, tools, the old flat it was in.. little bits of artwork here and there.

the place was fairly dark with a lot of mood lighting spilling in from the streets outside through the windows.

i did not want to use a flash so i had to take pictures as rather high iso settings (3200 or 6400) on my pentax. i have to say it worked better than expected even though i definitely should have brought a tripod. next time.

here are some of the shots i took there:
