Studio progress; moving right along!

22 10 2008

We are aiming to largely be out of my current studio by the end of this weekend, so I’m afraid both the blog and the easel may be neglected for the next week or so. I do have a few pictures to post of the progress on my studio though. The builders had a bit of a rough start in the beginning slogging around in the mud due to the pretty heavy rain we had just prior to their arrival. But once the ground started to firm up, things moved much quicker.  Here’s the way it came along over the weekend:

By Monday I was able to take a peek inside. Here is the framing for the high windows on the wall of my painting area:

One of the builders, Gene, after a hard day’s work. Gene felt my picture needed a center of interest, so he kindly obliged:

This is the portico side as it looked this morning. This side faces the back porch. This area will be my future office area. There is some loft space for storage in the portico above the door.

When I looked outside this A.M. they had pulled out the siding, roofing, doors and windows. Not sure how far they’ll get with all of that, but based on the progress so far, I imagine things will look very different by evening’s end.

Jennifer, thanks for sharing your pictures, it’s fun to see the progress. You must be so excited! It looks like it won’t be long now before it’s finished!

Debbie- Glad you’ve enjoyed the pics. I am super excited, but trying to temper this with patience, as it will be required in the days ahead. After the shell is up we will have to work on the finishing- HVAC, electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall, (plus all of the inspections that go along with these processes). Then lighting, painting, trimwork, & flooring, and putting our yard and fence back together. I probably forgot some things too! Any way, it’s a bit like the art career as a whole– it’s a marathon, not a sprint.

How very exciting Jennifer. I’m anxious to see the finished product. I’m sure you have already thought of where every tube of paint goes and all the other necessities go. The rest of us will just have to be patient, right? Congratualtion’s…….. this is so very exciting.
