My Studio Space



I'm so happy you've stopped by to check out my studio. Several years ago my husband encouraged me to turn our empty formal living room into a work space. After reading WWC magazine, I was inspired to repaint my studio a warm yellowish color that creates a constant feeling of light an warmth. I've surrounded myself with my work as well as the work of fellow artists. My continued exploration of calligraphy has sent me down varies paths, examples of which are all around my studio. I have many projects in the works for the empty spaces you see. Thanks for stopping by, please leave a comment and come back again.

  9. What a wonderful idea..much better than a formal living room! Isn't your husband clever to suggest that? It certainly makes a lovely bright studio. You know we all love your birdcage chair!

    If you get a chance, you might want to stop by and see my little creative area. Thanks for the tour...
