We Finally Moved Into Our New Home!

EPISODE 114

Well, it's finally happened! We are in our new home and this is the episode where we get to chat all about it and answer your questions! Thank you, everyone, for your lovely messages and for encouraging us to make this a house-related episode. Well, let’s be honest, I didn’t really need the encouragement, but Richie did!

In this episode, we talk about where we have moved to, why we have made this change, and what it has been like to finally get those keys after months of anticipation!

I chat about how my art might change now that we are here and what I am thinking of as far as a home studio set-up. Meanwhile, Richie talks about his new practice of combining morning walks with meditation.

We hope that you enjoy this special house-moving episode!

A few things we talk about:

  • Where we have moved to and why.

  • How we prepared for the move, including getting ahead on key aspects of the art business.

  • The Covid-19 outbreak put our state into a strict six-day lock-down and threw a spanner in the works on moving day.

  • What it’s like to be in new surroundings and how I think it might impact my art. Hint: There are a lot of birds here!

  • Where I will be setting up my home studio and some of the things that I am considering, including what supplies I need and how to spit the space into separate areas for admin and creative play.

  • Taking things slow and not feeling rushed to be creative straight away.

  • Richie’s new practice of taking morning walks without listening to any podcasts or audiobooks and instead using the time for meditation.
