Semi retired type with interest in the arts

61 year old male who has recently finished long career in television.
Studied fine art as a kid, so lean that way in life.
Extremely quiet and tidy being very house proud.
Adores cooking, walking, forever learning.
Moved down from Leeds to settle here, where my closest friends live.
Looking for a house to buy in the future, but need somewhere for around a year or so to see me over.
Do DIY for the elderly to keep me busy, so useful around the house fixing things etc.
My plan is to spend my time left painting and drawing and become a full time artist (paint people usually, heads).
Very easy going and loves a good natter when convenient, but respect peoples personal space and time.
