Studio Glimpse June 2008

Glimpse \Glimpse\, n. A short, hurried view

As I rounded the corner of my hallway I spied the sunlight streaming through my studio window and lighting my treasures in the most beautiful way. I grabbed my camera and snapped a few photos of my favorite place---until next time---Sharon

I have been reorganizing and "making pretty" my studio room. A few weeks ago I papered the top of one of my work tables with favorite papers that had accumlated over time. Really love the way the way the table looks plus an added bonus that I didn't think about is the top makes a great background for photos. The table top is one of my Art in the Everyday! ---until next time---Sharon

Studio Glimpse May 2008

As usual the idea began at the flea market as Chris and I walked and talked. She discovered the atlas and I immediately cried foul because that is what I had been looking for. After a very long pause she gave me the atlas and told me that whatever treasure I found next I had to give it to her. More on that later. I am an organized person. I iron my t-shirts. I dust under the bed on a regular basis. Really. My studio is always a wreck. The atlas my sister found and gracefully gave to me changed all that. For 1 week (except for going to work, cooking dinner, bathing, walking the dogs, and a few other misc items) I changed the course of my life with a studio upgrade. My DH installed a 4' x 8' sheet of slatwall in my studio. I covered each and every slat with my beloved atlas. Very easy to do but a bit time consuming. I decoupaged my worktable. I organized my paints-sort of. My rubber stamps never had it so good. Anyway I thougt that someone OUT THERE might be interested in how a walk through the flea market with your sister can change things forever. Until next time--Sharon--

As I sat in front of the computer staring out of the dining room window Ace and Champ were digging a hole to China in the front yard. Seems beagles like to dig. That's ok. A few holes in the yard is a small price to pay for their oh-so-sweet companionship--until next time--Sharon
