Dying Organza and a few new things in my studio

August 18, 2016

I’m down to the details of finishing my studio and I am looking forward to more creative time and less shopping, installing, returning and measuring time. One important addition was my “tracking” board, a 3′ x 4′ magnetic dry erase board. I wanted a 4′ x 6′ board but they were enormously expensive. I learned that […]

Work and play

July 21, 2016

I’m done, I’m done-my unpacking is done! I finished after 16 straight days of hard labor and it was worth it. I am shocked to report that everything I needed fit to into my Studio, with room left over. Which means that I probably over-purged. But dang, it feels good to have everything clean, organized and […]
