Wee Studio

I am finally starting to move my vast illustration and design operation from the house to the wee garden studio. It will be nice to commute across the patio to the studio instead of what happens now. Which, suffice to say, involves padding across the carpet from the bed to the office chair. Ha! The truth is out! I do have to go into the kitchen to make coffee. So that's something. For more than 15 years I commuted by car to an office job that took no less than 3-4 hours out my day. So I'm not complaining. Even though my space now is tight and limited it is going to be hard to leave my little nest. There will be lots to do before I make the big move. Electricity needs to be installed, air conditioning, heating, insulation and various do-dads will be needed make it seem like home. Money in, money out!

Here are some linkages for your viewing pleasure:

Mark Penxa Nice sketchbooks.

Hey, my buddies at BloomMedia just launched a new website, Ladera Vineyards. They designed, programmed and just about did everything but squeeze the grapes themselves. Check it out.

Speaking of Vineyards, if you are ever in my neck of the woods and want to check out the vino use this thing to see where everything is.

Oh, wow! I'd be in heaven to have a studio like that! Will you take pictures as you get it set up and going? I'd love to see what it looks like inside, from different angles, inside looking out, etc.

If you already mentioned it, I missed it...but is your wee studio custom built or is it a pre-fabricated building? What is the square footage? Enjoy! ~Sharon
