Recent Studio Pics

These pictures were taken in the studio a couple of weekends ago. It was a warm, sunny day and we all were in a painting mood. The warmth was nice for a change, as it can get pretty chilly in our studio. For instance, the pilot light went out in the furnace again (and I seem none to bright at getting it re-lit - thanks to my brother-in-law for his pilot lighting abilities) so tonight we were working with our down jackets on and drinking lots of hot tea. My feet are still cold. But back to the sunny day that these pictures were taken --nice light, warmth, great companionship with enlightening feedback and criticism.



This is the painting I started and I am excited to see where it goes. I think the patterned cloth will be really nice if I can manage to pull it off in a John Singer Sargent kind of way.



And look how adorable Grace is in her little elf hat - so adorable. Who wouldn't want to work in this studio?



You can sort of see Jodie on the right hand side. She didn't really want her picture taken, and the one that was taken she didn't want shown. But she was there too, and it wouldn't be the same with out her.



And who could forget our loyal mascot, Kya.

Thanks to all of my treasured studio-mates for so many great studio sessions.
