When I moved to my new home in 2015 I lost my studio space which was was built a couple of years before we moved. It was half of the garage that was converted with air conditioning. My husband, brother-in-law and my brother all helped build it. My daughter had painted kites and clouds on the ceiling. It was a special studio and I missed it.
In the fall of 2021 my husband convinced me to take a ride to look at sheds on the side of the highway going to Seguin. Most of the sheds out there were in neutral colors or barn red. There was one I liked (160 sq ft) but I wanted to think about it. As I was leaving I asked the guy, does it only come in Red? he said No you can pick any color on our color chart. I stopped dead in my tracks, and went back in to his office to see all the colors! I don't live in an HOA so I was free to pick what I whatever wanted. Bora Bora Blue with a white trim and white metal roof, SOLD! ( I love the beach and wonder more often than not, why I am living so far from it).
6 weeks later, the contractors arrived, built it on site, and painted in all in one day. It took another 6-7 months to get everything else together, electrical wiring, insulation, sheetrock, The final installation was the electric panel and a spilt AC unit. My studio was finally complete on Memorial weekend. I had a setback with a freon leak in the AC unit, and that was repaired this week so I finally got to use my studio! (It's been in the 100''s here, so no way to use without AC)
I am currently creating 3 stained glass panels for the upper portion of the windows. I also did a short walk through video: https://youtu.be/D7NOYYMJcbA
You have been busy! That is a beautiful, beautiful art studio! I particularly love the stained glass on the doors, and the art you're making inside!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!! Now that it's done, I'm hoping I can take some time to create some art!
