A few shots of my studio
Category: gardening among the rocks | Posted: Fri Nov 30, 2007 10:18 pm We're still chipping away at the conversion of my greenhouse to a painting studio- if I have to heat the place anyway, I might as well paint in it too! Probably won't do much now until spring, but it's all sealed in anyways. I'm hoping to chip away at insulating over the winter. Here's a before shot, with the studio in full-clutter mode and a WIP on the easel. This is looking the same direction as the next couple of shots. 
So here's the view from the inside after I'd cleared things away but not removed the wall yet- 
And a short time later, with the greenhouse roof removed too- 
And with the roof torn off the greenhouse side- 
DH on the roof, now with the clear plastic replaced with a solid roof and a dormer built on to let in more light and offer more head room, the doorway in the first pic was moved to the middle of the inside wall, right where the dormer is. The window here was a gift from a friend, pulled from an old house he remodeled years ago. 
I've moved my easel back in, redone the erstwhile greenhouse-side floor with sand and concrete pavers, cleaned things up a bit. Still so much to do, but at least I'm making progress. It will be better come spring and warmer weather. On a completely different note, DH, DD, and I went for a hike to a local beach, and I caught this extremely cute shot of my little girl.

It looks like it's going to be a great art studio. Hopefully alot of great art will come from there
Looks like a great space to get inspired!
You will no doubt draw lots of inspiration from your new environment Mary. I wish you all the very best in you new studio!
Mary, I am looking forward to seeing the many wonderful works of art that will be created in your new studio. Your daughter is a cutie, how old is she.
Looking good critter painter.You will enjoy your studio very much when its finished.
You are so brave to redo everything yourself. I'd have lost my courage fairly quickly. Lovely daughter!
Yes daughter is a pretty little thing. You are SO going to enjoy working in this space. There is absolutely nothing better than having a place outside your house to make a big mess in. You finish and out you go and shut the door. Scenic too.
wow, thanks! Becky is an absolute sweetheart, she's actually 15 but developmentally and height-wise still is, and always will be, a little girl.
Oh, what a dream place your new studio will be. Actually the building looked great before the renovation started too.
It is awesome that you have a place to hibernate to like this! I am'green' with envy!
