Well, if there is one thing that will force my hand to write my blog it's sending out our newsletter to 500 people that says "don't forget to read our blog!" I really should do the blog first.....
It has been a great season for the arts, at least here in Naples at casa|art|studio. We have been so fortunate to have had lots of sales, custom commissions awarded to us, and a great gang of students who have kept us inspired with their works even though we're supposed to be the ones doing the teaching and inspiring. One day they'll catch on and realize I should be paying them!
The month of May finds things moving along at a slower pace and we are enjoying the moment to catch our breath, think about new business ideas for the coming year, and sneak out early and go to the pool. You can generally tell the people that live in Florida as they are the ones without a tan....and that would be us!
We will be making some changes to our studio this summer as most of you know Steve and I can't leave things looking the same for too long. We are losing square footage yearly with all of the coats of paint we have added along the way just because "Cynthia wants the accent wall brown instead of green", said in a slightly irritated fashion by Steve (he does all of the painting). And Steve will be taking a photoshop class and I'll be back to my writing class with the hopes that the combination of those two courses will improve our blogs, newsletters and all of the pretty pictures that go in them.
And I suppose we'll create some art along the way too! We always have so many ideas about what we want to paint that it is fun to just have the studio time without the show schedule so we can just get into the zone and ignore everything else. We're also planning to buzz over to the east coast a time or two for inspiration. It is such a vibrant art scene in Miami - a day there can fuel our creativity for months to come.
We'll be in touch!
