Greyman's Studio

This studio is being built in Ludhiana, India by Preet Mangat(greyman).

The following is the text and pictures he has sent me......cheers John

I'm sending the pictures taken at different stages during construction. It all started in the 1st week of Feb. 2001. I've a team of about 6 workers......we work for about 10 hrs a day. I and two of my assistants take care of the designs, planning, purchasing etc.....and 6 of 'm (THE CARPENTERS) execute it.

Whatever is seen in the pictures, is a result of 45 days of hard work.
