It's a pretty sweet room now.<BR/><BR/>Lynn a lot of my paintings depict mother and child images. I was really hung up on them for awhile and guess I am still attracted to them. I brought back a cache of old photos purchased in a thrift store of mom and kids from the 30's and feel I want to incorporate them into some paintings.<BR/><BR/>thanks Chewy. I returned with some collage materials and old photos and have been playing with those for some wax collages. But the two paintings I left unfinished or three really are calling me too.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Mim. Mom only made that one quilt I think but in the storage unit I have a whole trunk full of family made quilts. I was named after my great-grandma Susan and have a wonderful photo of her quilting when blind at age 92 and I am in the picture too.

Now that I am taking over more of it, I do like it better. There is just one section still hung with greasy tools and cluttered with two table saw things from Dad. I will tackle those at another time as i am also clearing out the garage area where the folks has stashed a lot of stuff that should be bound for the dump.<BR/><BR/>I also changed the curtains in my room from a flowery print mom chose to plain cream. Along with the rug, actually two rugs, the bedspread and pillow and paintings it shouts ME!<BR/><BR/>Cris it is true I dont go into lots of details in my paintings, never have. More the shapes and colors I guess and just representing people in this way. Flat you might say. I think this might be my best painting. Although one always hopes to top ones best someday.<BR/><BR/>human being, thanks for your reflections, as always so thoughtful. Hmmm, home. So does that mean I had best change my drivers registration to NH. I've been here 8 months.

You want to know what those girls are looking at. what story is going on. it leaves much to the imagination. Like a good book. I would have asked for it back too. :)<BR/>The more of YOU in that Studio the more HOMEY it will seem and make you want to be in there. Depending on how long you are there you will keep making it more YOU and feel better. Great post Suki. I will have to go back over it again a few times. :) Con is the same tho..When it gets cold out he has a hard time going into the garage to work on something. He needs heat out there.

You seem to have space to move around in there and that is a true gift! Love the shelves!<BR/><BR/>How very kind of you to make sure the baby birds have as much privacy as possible while they grow.<BR/><BR/>I love the rug you brought back...it must make a huge difference in your space there. Isn't it funny your mother doesn't remember making the quilt and you adore it so much. Love the pillow, too.<BR/><BR/>Suki, you are an incredible inspiration to so many people...your impact on our lives is tremendous!

But i want to photo some wild irises so I'll go soon and see what I can find.

I love to enlarge the pictures and to take in every detail, for example all the little things on the shelves, the art material which is almost breathing and makes the place look alive and the artist's place. I like the blue lamp too, had one in red but it broke, these lamps are great to tear them near the object you are working on, and the folding table looks very handy. <BR/>And your painting with the three girls is awsome. I love it. Glad you are living with it now:)<BR/><BR/>Oh and the rug is very nice too, sure that makes the place cosy!<BR/><BR/>Andrea<BR/>Oh, the poppy, it reminds me that a friend of mine ordered a poppy painting and I haven't yet done it cause I have no poppies here, and no pictures. Perhaps, I don't know if this is too much to ask for, could you take some more pictures for me of a poppy like that, with it's leaves ? That would be so wonderful but please don't bother if it's too complicated!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12602563148936673366noreply@blogger.com
