Thanks for stopping by!

Here are some works from a collection I bought from the family of one of my collectors. They wish her to remain anonymous. Also posted here today are the first 4 pieces I have made in my new homestead cabin art studio. My neighbor Josh told me he might have a cabin I could have (it was on his property) when I showed him the cement pad I had poured when I was also having cement poured for my new catio on my house. One of our neighbor's had given him the cabin and he hauled it over for me on a trailer he rigged up that the cabin could fit on it.

This cabin art studio has been my summer project! So grateful for all the help on it this summer from Olin, Josh, Stephen, Chief and Kathi helping with gardening.

Here are most of this week's postings in 2 group photos taken at my new studio.

Here is my fabulous new homestead cabin art studio, on the lot next door to my house. Thank you to my neighbor Josh for giving me the homestead cabin, a neighbor of ours had given it to him years ago and he wanted it to be an art studio for his kids but I think they had other interests. I enjoyed making art this past month in my studio.
