 In the years following his return from Italy, Etty had a very limited social life. In a typical day he would wake at 7 am, paint from around 9 or 10 am until 4 pm, after which he would have a meal. Following the meal he would take a walk, and attend life classes between 6 and 8 pm. On returning home he would drink two cups of tea, and go to bed at midnight.
