This is probably
my favorite kind of weather!
Misty, foggy, hushed...
Mysterious, magical, silvery,
gray.
I'm not sure it's all that easy to tell in these photos,
but that's the color I've chosen for my new studio walls.

A soothing, silvery, gray
It's coming along, slowly but surely!
The painting isn't complete yet,
and there are still bath fixtures and lighting fixtures to be installed,
as well as the built in shelves and work surface,
but it sure is taking shape!

On another note,
I'd like to share about some good works with you.
have joined forces to bring together their generosity, hope,
and amazing talents in order to help the people of Japan
effected by the tsunami.
I encourage you to visit them
and consider making a donation of $25, or more,
to the American Red Cross.
When you do, they will match donations (up to $200)
and gift you with some of their inspiring work.
It's a win win!!

ReplyDeleteGrey is without a doubt my favourite colour and I love your grey exterior and interior. Your studio looks AMAZING. Pen x
ReplyDeleteHello Beautiful Lafdy. Your Studio is looking fab. I'm feeling envious. Hope you are feeling well and happy xxJ
ReplyDeleteI love this gray color. You know what else I love? A gray house with a black door but my husband will have none of that. What a beautiful studio! If it were mine, I will sleep and eat in it. I am afraid my amily will never see me again unless they come up to see me. Hahaha! Thank you for the plug. We started the fundraising last Friday (4 days ago) and the response is tremendous. It's a lot of work but busy fun!
ReplyDeleteI am in love and awe of your serenity in this color choice...so peaceful dear friend. I am so proud of your courage and determination! I wish you Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
ReplyDeleteYour studio is moving along with the forces of nature! I like the way in which you've brought your favorite atmosphere right into the studio. May you have many wonderful hours there, steeped in paint, pastels, ink and soft gray walls.

ReplyDeleteOh Karin!! It's amazing - love the color and the windows!! The lines and angles - it will be just right - so glad it's progressing, hopefully nicely:)
ReplyDeletexo
Hi Karin, good to read you. Wow! Your studio is just coming along perfectly. I agree with Patti about the lines and angles, just right. As for the fog and mist, etc., I love it and love walking in the fog. It doesn't get foggy here any longer. We used to get what they called the "tule" fog, pronounced "TOO LEE" and it was so thick, so very thick you just could not drive in it. It used to come right up to my back door. Awesome, just awesome. Hope your feeling good Karin, I think of you. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI love the space Karin!! Thanks for your messages....I'll write more to you later...cooking to do for Passover now....mwah!
ReplyDeletelooks wonderful! get the beds ready we'll be knocking at the studio door! glad you are feeling more like "it" too!
ReplyDeleteYour new creative space! Oh my goodness, it's fantastic! I love all the angles and nooks. I love the gray walls and dark wood floors! Do you know, my kitchen is a light shade of gray as well. How exciting!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for the shout out, dear Karin. Thank you for your generosity and support!!!! TSUP TSUP TSUP!!!
oh my it is looking wonderful...I can hardly wait till you can create in it.
ReplyDelete& thanks for that trash / waste vid :-)
So much progress -- I hope it feels that way to you too. This is going to be one special place!
