• Why I Love My Cat

    It’s early in the morning: the sun hasn’t come up, just a desk light on next to my computer.  The studio is quiet. I’m checking emails and catching up on things left undone from the night before. I suddenly realize my sweet cat, with the awful name (Mooch) has come to keep me company.  She’s been there for awhile, before…

  • Burrr, Is it cold where you live?

    It’s February 5th and I’m ready with block number two of  “Snowbound”.  We’re going skiing!  Might seem a little strange if you live in Australia, but here in the United States, many cities are covered in snow and freezing! Our little snowman doesn’t care about the cold.  Cold means snow, and snow means fun!

  • Welcome 2010!

    I really thought 2009 would bring a new addition to the studio.  It was such a good idea, adding on an extra 400 square ft. of working space.   I began to doubt it several months ago, when plans failed to arrive, deadlines weren’t met, and frustrations began to build.  When the plans finally arrived, and the bids came in, the…
