open studio @ the hobbs

The crunch is on!
Fall Open Studio at the Hobbs is October 10 and 11: Friday from 6-10 pm, Saturday from noon to 4 pm…

The studio is always a disaster going into it. Write that up under the never-learns column.

I still haven’t gotten back to drawing. No big concern there as long as I hit it in time for the Valentines shows in February. So, the focus is on self portraits. I am very happy with some of the results I have been getting. I will not be able to afford any high-end outputs, but I plan some lower price-point photo enlargements…

Work on the studio has begun. Maybe not the the most obvious starting point. I attacked the storage heap of a closet of mine. The studiomate helped build and install some shelves for more proper organization. The overhead shelf will still hold storage stuff, but nowhere else. I am tired of fighting the clothes hanging around the studio. From hence forth, the wardrobe stays in the closet. Unless it is out on me.

Or dirty, like me…

I also began cladding my doors with quarter inch plywood, cut into various squares and strips. The doors rot ass! They always have. I am finally tired of looking at them as I climb the stairs. And Michael, the studiomate, had a pile of excellent scrap lumber piling up at work. I love free materials and supplies…

I will take some shots when the projects are finished.

October is a three paycheck month, so big big bonus right before the Open Studio, which means I can put some money into snacks and adult beverages. Nothing hugely pricey in mind, but I am glad to have the funds to offer a nice choice…

Back to the crunch…
