While I was painting, there were 2 men working on my real studio. I paint in another building, a giant workshop where it doesn’t matter if I drop wet things, and where there is a little heater with a shelf in front of it for drying, along with pegboard for hanging wet paintings and two young cats hiding underneath and behind things.
My studio has been a wonderful little gift. It began its life as a shed where the previous occupant planed wood for his grandfather clocks, which he built in the workshop. He shoved the wood in the front door and out the back door. When our friend Mike remodeled the shed for me in 2001 (I moved in January 1, 2002), he removed the back door and put a window there. The window was on the wall looking out at the workshop, and that isn’t a coveted view by any stretch of the imagination. Besides, I needed a solid wall to hang my art.
But I digress. Why were 2 men, both named Michael, working on my studio?
They were cutifying it!
The dark brown building next door is where I paint (and drop wet things and harbor stray kittens).

Thank you, Melissa! Been waiting for this cuteness for many years. . . will it help me draw better??
I love it! And just in time for 1st Saturday when you will be open next month . Great planning!
Nikki, I’ve been requesting this work with the April 7 deadline in mind for many months now and am thrilled that it might be finished in time!
Very cute indeed!
Thank you, Gina! It is cute, but inside it is still just a single tiny room, which is an excellent place to draw regardless of the outside appearance.
And cute it is! You deserve it! Paint on…
Aw shucks, Donna! All that work for a room to draw in while I paint in the giant barn-like structure next door.
Nice!
Thank you, Nancy! It is truly nice, so cute I’d rather sit outside and admire it than go in and work.
