As promised, here's a look at recent Gallery 2 exhibitor Martha McDonald's studio!
Working from her private studio at Boyd School Studios in Southbank (which she's occupied since 2009), Martha's generously sized West-facing space has wonderfully ample windows running along one side that lets in streams of light.
