I am making up my own words to describe finishness. Done-d.
So last week I started the floor and this week I finished it. It even has a few coats of satin polyacrylic stuffity-stuff.
I like the whole idea of words (permanently on the floor) reminding you of the function of a room.
My studio is almost even (spankin, nothing anywhere it isn't supposed to be, everything has a place) clean. I have been trying to organize and get the room to the very comfortable state. The why-leave-the-room-at-all, when-everything-you-could-possibily-think-to-create-is-in-that-room, sort of feeling.
The cleanliness, comfort level is now at 3.75 out of 5. Normally, it is OK for the room to be messy, while in the middle of a project. But since we moved the room has been that way far too often for my liking. So it is ALMOST there.
It feels good.
I have also been doing really well on creating a creative practice, as I had talked about a few posts ago. Today, I started cleaning and working in the studio at 7 a.m. and stopped around 4, with coffee and lunch breaks. Yum-yum-yum. I am a good artist, with good studio practice. evry-single-day, like.
Yesterday we painted David's room and are getting him ready to be settled and ready to play music!
I am off to a sewing pot-luck. The computer is groaning from the heat!
Hey! Please gimmee a comment. I love 'um. I promise to write back to everybody who leaves one. I will even tell you what my favorite color of the moment is.
Your bird drawing is just beautiful!! I love birds, though I don't subscribe to any bird magazines...I'm impressed!
Your studio is looking fab. LOVE the wood floor.
And one of my art quilt students' son works for pixar and made 'ratatouille' and she got to go to the employee party in San Fran--2,000 people! I haven't seen the movie yet, but want to.
MY fave color has been celadon green. I'm obsessed with it. Only in my home though--wouldn't ever wear it.
What's your fave?
is professional studio decorating in your future???? keep up the creative practice!

I love the floor also. Makes sense to me. Did I ever tell you one of my dreams is to have foot high letters on a shelf that spell R E A D?
