I
have many things to be thankful for and one is that I am very lucky to have
taken over the top floor of my home to use as an art studio. One of the perks of having an empty nest!
But
even though my space is large it has been cluttered and not well planned
out. I tend to work in a creative
cyclone at times especially when I am preparing to teach a class or exhibit at
a conference.

Well,
while being hosted by Julie & Ron Gausvik in Indianapolis to teach my
Sleeping Mermaid class this fall, Julie brought me to meet her friend Janet Brandt. Janet so graciously took me on a tour of her
studio which is also the top floor of her home but so much more beautiful than
my space. I just fell in love with her
studio!

I
have been so inspired by Janet’s workspace that I am starting to think about
what to do with mine to make it more inviting.

Until
next time……
