A new studio with more space means more art made . . . right? I am still in the process of getting my studio up and running so I can get into a production mode. It’s been a bit since I was able to sit down and produce the amount of work I feel I should be producing. I have a ton of ideas but with the chronic pain and the increase in my pain meds I feel like I’m walking around in a fog and can’t think straight or get motivated to do anything. But with that aside I see light at the end of my journey of pain. I am hoping that a resolve to this chapter of my life is near. It will mean time off to recuperate but the drawing, painting and working on photo illustrations, I’ll be able to do. The pottery . . . maybe not so much until I’m off the crutches. Unless I can find someone to help me out. Either way I am looking forward to producing more work and feel positive for once.
A new bigger studio means that I will now have the space to do and store more work and have space for a gallery to show my art. No more will I have the cramped quarters with everything on wheels so I can move them around and out of the way every time I want to mix up some clay or glazes or sit down at the wheel and produce ware. No more finding room for ready to fire wear so it doesn’t get broken. I’ll be going from a 130 square foot space to a 2000+ square foot studio. It’s my hope that this coming weekend or the next weekend will see my new digs up and running with everything in place. I still have to find an electrician to hook up my kilns so if anyone can recommend someone let me know. I look forward to having more light, more space and better access, warmer in the winter, to my kilns.
So onward and upward . . . let the production begin.
