    This blog documents the creation of eleven paintings inspired by the 17th century palette of works in Rembrandt and the Golden Age of Dutch Art, an exhibition that traveled to three U.S. cities in 2006-07. During June of 2007, all eleven paintings were presented as my exhibit, Lessons from the Low Countries, while the Rembrandt exhibit debuted its three-month stay at the Portland Art Museum in Portland, Oregon. Read the documentation and see all finished works of this year-long project in the August 2006 through June 2007 entries on this blog.

New Digs

Studio_image_red_gold_scarf The dust is settling and the floors are curing since our move to the west side. After months of apartment dwelling and house hunting that, as you can imagine, included lingering frustrations, we have found a suitable home/studio/shop.

After signing the final papers in December, several weeks went by while various crews installed hardwood floors, counter tops, and then painted the interior walls. Finally, on February 5th, the moving vans arrived with household and studio belongings dusty from many months of storage.

Just before the move, Dave seriously injured his hand with a skill saw, and many friends came to our rescue to help with the unpacking. I don't know what we would have done without their help and emotional support.

Throughout the rest of February and into March, Dave and I continued emptying boxes and putting things in place. My studio, as you can see here, is beginning to take shape as is the new painting on the easel..
