Ghost painter’s garden studio

An unusual artist's garden studio case study on Malvern Garden Buildings' blog focuses on Sal who uses her Studio Pavilion model from the supplier's range to produce unique art as the piece explains:

Sal once worked as a housekeeper in a stately home, dedicating her spare time to painting. She drew inspiration from her imagination, creating artworks that depicted female servants from a bygone era as they went about their daily tasks.

Interestingly, it wasn’t until Sal exhibited some of her paintings that a local recognised one of the characters as a former servant from the very house where she had worked. To this day, Sal continues to use this same creative process, allowing her figures to emerge from the canvas, often adorned in Edwardian hats, petticoats, or uniforms typical of life below stairs.

The garden office's features include two double cupboards with a glass top used as a palette, and built-in storage shed. Lots more photos at the Malvern site here.
