My latest canvas…

The new! improved! Studio Grande!!!

Sheetrock’s up. Taped and textured. Next step is priming. And then painting. First I have to pick the paint. White. But which one? There may be fifty shades of gray but there are approximately fifty thousand hundred million Shades Of. WHITE!!!

AAACK!

But the door will be painted red. Red I can do.

This view is from the door. Cabinets will run the length of both walls under the windows. We’re picking them up at Ikea this Saturday.By Monday they’ll be built and in place, waiting for the concrete counters that Mr. Spouse will pour the following week.

Cross your fingers, girls and boys…the counters WILL be poured next week! Yes. They. Will.

Going to put a vent fan on the back wall between the two windows. That will be where I do encaustics and spray stinky stuff.

Another view of the wall o’windows. I just love this wall.

And a view from the encaustic area towards the front.

Still have to take the tarps off the skylights.

Still have to do a lot of things. But we’re getting closer. And I’m thinking knowing my art is going to blossom in here!
