Celebrating the Extraordinary in the Everyday

Falling Forward...

Well, I must admit, I had planned on writing to you again much sooner that this. But, as we know, Covid took place and many plans that were made, got changed or canceled. And I'm sure like many of you, I had family home for months when they normally would be gone (in my family's case, in high school and college.) We had days filled with on-line classes, quick lunches and long dinners. Things are somewhat back to normal now (if we can say that) and I am finally back into my paints!

My biggest news is that I am renovating my studio! When we moved into our house, my studio (the room above the garage) was never finished and I've been using a hodge podge of old furniture and folding tables! It has worked fine but it's been so exciting to paint the walls and pick out some nice flooring (that's still durable to hold up to creative work!) I will have four main areas in the room: (1) a retail/finished art area, (2) my oil painting easel with a still life set up and supply cart , (3) the acrylic and mixed media table (where the super messy stuff happens) and (4) a small efficient office/mailing center.
