The long road to spring

I get very excited once we have made it past the longest day of the year. I like to check the sun up and sun down times daily rejoicing in the smallest gain of time. I measure the days in how late I can take Lucy out for a walk and how long we can stay out. A clear day can be such a bonus, but it can be miss leading since we have so many days shortened by our usual weather. Anyway I am looking to the horizon for light and soon to the ground for those very early signs of green poking up.

Studio will be open until further notice

This weekend is the Crazy Sale at the studio. It is basically a garage sale with some art, vintage china, glass & books, jewelry, natural wonders and lots of oddities. The oddities are going fast. The studio was supposed to be closing next week, but the Artists In Great Spaces, program has had a very nice response in Everett, and I have been asked to continue my stay. I will be moving out the non art g-sale items and moving my art, and my paints back in to the studio October 5th. This time I have asked artist Jane Meagher to join me in my space at 2831 Wetmore Ave, in downtown Everett. Just a few block west of Comcast Arena and Event Center. We hope to collaborate on a sculpture piece and our space should be open more days with the two of us sharing the space. Please check back for times next week. Until then GO DAWGS! Speaking of dogs, Lucy as turns out is a good studio dog. She love the place, and settles right done to lay in the sun, and she gets lots of greetings and treats.
