The New Studio

Welcome To My Studio


 I finally got everything in place. . . 
 just in time for the Fort Collins Studio Art Tour

But it wasn't easy. . . .


Talk about starting with a blank canvas,
this room was a dark shade of blue and the moon light up top, has got to go.


Oriental rug, no studio should be without one 
I love mine
shhhhh, I took it out of my dinning room.


arranging the paintings was the next step for my show room.
Every gallery or studio should have a show room where the lighting is just right,
just ask Eric Smith of Art Business News and the mind behind
Art Expo New York 


now to add lights
It's starting to look great


I decided to add some flowers and a small lounge to my show room,
ahhhhhh, yes very relaxing


now back to work 


ok, maybe one more picture in this room,
yeaaaa


This area is ready for the tour, 
I made the lamp, it is called the idea


Mother's Love is on exhibit at the Lincoln Center Gallery
during the preview exhibit for the Fort Collins Studio Arts Tour


Some friends stop by during the studio tour to see me and to say hi to Zuri my studio mate.


we had quite a few visitors, 
sorry I didn't have time to take picture of them all,
but here are a few


My new studio is all set up, the Studio Art Tour turned out great
everyone had a chance to see my new work area and I am loving my new place,


The front of my work space is split in two parts 


I have a place to painting,   to sculpt


 hang  paintings 


and a show room


I also now have room for classes, I missed having students of my own.
My new studio is big enough for me to teach private lessons.
I am so excited, these were my first private students in my new studio, two sisters.


Life is wonderful
