How Oakdale Studios got it’s name

I was born in Warsop,  3.03 miles from The Major Oak Tree (as the
arrow flies) & enjoyed playing there as a child
I spent many a good night with great friends at The Greendale Oak
pub at Cuckney. The Greendale Oak Tree is also a famous tree on
the Welbeck Estate
Barnsdale  is ½ of my family name & is thought to be linked
through history to “John Little of Barnsdale”, please make of this
as you will
The “Studios” side is a concept of  me creating my works of art &
being helped by “students”  from time to time. For “payment” they
can use my studio, equipment & experience to help them create
their own personal projects
The “Studios” can be anywhere & other artists can join in. We can
then collectively sell our own products from one place, draw
inspiration from each other, collaborate on joint ventures but also
have our own space to be creative in
