I thought I ought to write a post to explain my recent absence!
I haven't stopped painting, but I have been painting things aside from canvas, such as woodwork!
Yes, we have been knee deep in decorating and re-doing the entire hallway and landing has been an epic task!
We pretty much gutted it and started again.
Of course my favourite part was the 'styling' and I really love how it turned out!
...It's now the perfect place to sit with my feet up over a cup of coffee, with an Art book to browse through :0)
All but a few final touches it's about done, which means I can get back to painting on canvas! And if you read my recent Newsletter, you'll know that I am extra specially inspired to paint, as I'll be exhibiting in May 16 with The Worlington Artists, who I have recently been invited to join!
...That, however is another story altogether and I will be posting all about it soon. For now I just wanted to pop my head in and let you know that I'm still here and I'm buzzing with new ideas to paint. So watch this space!

Beautiful design photos, Sandra! I have been missing you, so it's great to see what all you've been up to lately! I particularly love the "dog approved" signage. Dogs make our homes feel like castles, don't they? Enjoy your new space! :)
ReplyDeleteLol, thanks Darla! Yes, they do... but my castle seems to always be covered in a layer of fur! Drives me a bit crazy at times! Should be back at the easel soon. I have missed my studio so much! :0)
DeleteYour hallway is lovely, wow! And congrats on the exhibition!
ReplyDeleteThank you Judy! :0)
DeleteSandra, what an utterly warm and inviting spot you have created! I love the warm colors of the stonework, and the orange chair and footrest against the soft blues. It really is the perfect place to curl up with a hot drink and a good book!!

Thanks so much Kathryn!
DeleteYes, I love the colours too… Only problem is that now the lounge looks very tired in comparison, so that’ll be first on the to do list for 2016!
Such a lovely entry - so inviting and friendly - just like you!
ReplyDeleteAhh... Thanks so much Susan! It is a lovely space... The lounge will be next :0)
Deletelovely home, and now it has a personal touch. thanks for sharing

DeleteYes it does have our stamp on it now... I love having lots of photo's up and personal touches... Makes all the difference! :0)
