Studio space

Mon May 18, 2009, 10:29 PM
Well, well, well. Life is a roller coaster. But I keep getting back in line for the next ride.

Another day show behind me. Another sale in my pocket. Not bad and truthfully quite exciting didn't think it could happen.

And now another step to solidify for me that "yes, I am an artist". I'm in discussions for some studio space. The last time I tried to do something it just didn't work out at all. I about gave up on the idea altogether. But this time, it looks like it is going to happen. The space is within walking distance from home so that is a big plus. Better yet though is that I'm able to barter for rent. I can use my other skills to contribute to the cause/building/space/ community and rent is adjusted. The rates are a steal to begin with. But still, since I have more time than money this is a no-brainer.

Being able to paint in my home studio is still going to be primary. However, I have had a couple of projects on ice because of space concerns. This should help take care of that and bring those projects to a close. We'll see how it goes. 6 month lease can't be that bad, can it?

Here's to the old romantic notion of creating in an old warehouse loft ~wine glass lifted~

Thanks again for adding some'a mine to your collections.
Your works are awesome. I'm not very good with words and they do not convey very well what I want to express. there is something else happening in your work and it takes my breath away. Thanks for creating.

Thanks very much, . . I'm glad you like them, . . and you ARE very good with words!
He thanks for the fav =)
And you asked how you could get better photos of your painting. The best is to take a picture when there is daylight outside. And don;t put it directly in daylight, but but it in a shade, just experions with it, until you find the best way. =)
Keep up the good work!
