Statement:
Except from “Nature” by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
“The stars awaken a certain reference, because though always present they are in accessible; but all natural objects make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to their influence. Nature never wears a mean appearance. Neither does the wisest man share her secret, and lose his curiosity by finding out all her perfection. Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit. The flowers, the animals, the mountains, reflected the wisdom of his best hour, as such as they had delighted the simplicity of his childhood. Not the sun or the summer alone, but every hour and season yields its tribute of delight; For every hour and change corresponds to and authorizes a different state of the mind, from breathless noon to grimmest midnight in the woods is perpetual youth.”

It’s a great day to be outside painting the exterior of my studio! The North side got the works today. Brush and roll action is how the paint is being applied. Two tones of gray will cover the tan primmed exterior. Facia, gutters, and rain barrels will be installed later. Behold the fabulously beautiful pink front door!

12 truckloads and counting That’s a lot of moving!
Unpacking has begun I am finding some of my favorite specials and treasures. Old friends are here to play! Loyal and supportive. I love these friends. Blue. Yellow. Graphite. India ink. Tried and true varnishes and fixit tapes of all colors.
Spring is upon us and so is the mud. Stay tuned for more excellent news on the solar panels and mechanical room installation.

Take a moment to look at the sunshine and shadows. The details reveal a delicate space. The light helps my eyes see the nuances. Water is fleeting in nature. When it’s cold outside there is snow. A slight shift in light intensity or elevation is enough for snow to become rain. Living at 6,800 feet elevation is the best opportunity for viewing weather patterns and the behaviors of water. Amazing things happen when I change perspective.

It’s been amazing to see how many boxes are here. 8 truck loads so far. Maybe only 3 more. How did that happen? I am so excited to move the flat files next. In order to maintain a fluid interchangeable space the entire studio setup will be on wheels.

It’s time to move in. It’s been so much fun to build from ground up. Next phase is even more exciting and fun. Move and unpack. Where to put the tables? The driveway is a muddy mud pit. Which makes for a great time with the slip and slide! Road base and road grating is coming up as soon as the ocean of mud dries out. It’s pack and load time....

Let’s take a break and go on a walk. Get outside in Nature. I am excited to learn we are going to get a rain storm in a few days. Spring is only 2 weeks away. Yet the signs of spring are happening already if one looks closely. The pink flush in the plant world has begun. Spring is on its way!

It’s been wonderful weather full of sunshine and blessings for the exterior painting. I started on the north side of the studio building! This may take some time to complete, but it sure is nice to be outdoors in mid February. The color is going to be great. I just can’t resist opening with a pink door! Reminds me of Audrey Hepburn.

Loving the new hand built duct work ! The company cold air returns are going to be added bonus for the furnace. Fun times on a small platform. While Harry is working on the furnace installation I am scraping the floor’s and caulking the exterior windows and getting ready to paint the front door.
