The weather has been kinda chilly and I really haven't wanted to spend much time outside in my studio. So I have moved most of my drawing, painting & collaging stash inside to my new mini studio. I found this old sewing cabinet this summer at a thrift store for $26.00 . I had visions of making it into a studio for a small space. I just loved and can't part with it just yet. Here is why....
Isn't it cute? I painted , stenciled and glazed it inside and out. I replaced the old hardware with old rusty doorknobs. I collaged the inside of the doors with sheet music and hung a little piece of peg board in back for hanging stuff. I also covered the peg board with some fun paper I've been saving for a few years! On the inside I stuck a square tile of cork board that just barley fit. I have pretty much filled it to the max with all the stuff I can fit in there. It seems to change daily as I see what might work better than the previous day. You know what I mean..., I 've added some some lighting since I took this picture. I like to work pretty late sometimes and am always on the search for a good light source. I now have a clip on shop light and an ott-light. Much better!!!
So here are a few pictures of what I've been working on since joining Traci's class. Giving my faces backgrounds in a wild and colorful way!

Can you hear the" Looney Tunes" music in the background? I can. ;}
Until next time,
