Got the keys and went over to check out the space. Finally. Can't wait to get started moving in! Begins this weekend.

Some sketches for new drawings. Have done some additional mark tests to determine choices of paper and medium. Looking forward to being able to get into the studio again.

Finally got it together to piece my studio survey images together.

This will be the new HQ with weekend art events and some cool experimental installations. The painting will begin when the previous occupant moves out.

Have spent some more time with Google SketchUP, relearning some things I have forgotten. Working more on the layout of the new HQ. This image shows the long common hallway on the south-side. We're creating a larger door opening to move in/out the larger and 3d works. Also, a welcoming entrance for art openings. We've created a wall in front of the storage to feature a signature work to draw visitors in. The left side is facing North and is an ouside wall.

Finally got in to do some measuring.

Time now to make some scale objects of furniture that will be moved. The bottom of the image faces North. The colored squares indicate electrical outlets.

Getting work photographed professionally is an adventure. I have a very kind friend that is going to do this for me. Yes, I will give him a nice gift. It is essential that I determine how I will mount some of my larger drawings, drawings on vellum and synthetic paper.

Yes. I have started work on the new studio space. The glass counter is in place on a series of drawers were I can store almost anything. Things are a bit more ahead than this photo. It's very exciting. Unpacking and organizing supplies for a new space. It's actually fun now. Hope to have a series with the progress in the next few days up on monday. Until then I'm organizing drilling, hanging and assembling.

Visitors will be welcome soon.
