PETER KITCHELL: THE KITCHELL STUDIO, ASHFIELD, MASS.
When not painting we are building. This year it will be more stone walls. Six months of winter, but no neighbors for a mile. A 30 foot commute to the "office" but a half hour to dig it out each winter storm. The kids want to be sure they can always live here, sledding down to catch the carpool for school or swimming in the pond with the beavers and leeches. We are far from the California barrios I grew up in, but these Berkshire hills are full of their own culture. We appreciate what we have. City and other culture hits will always be necessary though.
