Christmas Greetings

Hi everyone…Well I was asked by @kai-satoshi to post pics of our studio, so here goes…hope it’s not too many pictures overall, but I thought I’d show the process too…because it’s been a loooong long process building it, it’s been like building a whole tiny house in miniature.
So anyway, here are a few of the process, building the timber frame:
And finally it turns into this!
Here’s the inside (not 100% finished but nearly done) - and the most exciting part - all that bit along the back is my new art desk!
It’s at least four times the size of my existing space for making traditional art, and hopefully this will be really helpful when doing the watercolours/traditional bits….at the moment I can barely fit large pads on my old desk, with all my inks, pencils etc lining the back…so I’m really looking forward to this. A close up:
At the other end is a toilet and kitchenette - so once inside we don’t have to leave for anything
My husband and I are super excited about the whole thing…with the kids making the house a less peaceful place it will hopefully be really helpful.... -
@Dulcie Wow - your studio already looks INCREDIBLE! Can't wait to see it finished and I can only imagine the wonderful creations that will come from within this amazing space!
-
Aww thanks @Rich-Green glad you approve
...it's been such a busy few months. I've had to look after the kids solidly/all school runs/home stuff, while my husband has supervised everything about the build (and done a lot of work himself) ...I've been coming out at intervals to see what's changed.. The garden is a bit wrecked by it all (mostly mud out there) but I guess that will recover with time... -
It looks awesome!!! So beautiful both on the inside and on the outside!
I am in the middle of it still, can't wait for it to be over.... -
@Dulcie Ahhh How cool is this! Lots of beautiful projects will be born in this place! Good Luck Dulcie! Happy New Year! xx
-
@Dulcie I am sure you will forget the world around you, when you work at this wonderful place.
The year cannot start better. Happy New Year for you! -
Wow @Dulcie that looks like such an inviting space! Did you guys design it or use existing plans? Very inspiring and I hope it serves you and your art well!
-
@smceeccarelli I’m sure the chaos and upheaval will be worth it in the end…I’ve just moved in and although we’re still waiting on water and properly fitted electricity, it is already amazing and definitely worth it…(though it’s much easier to feel that way once it’s all over!)
@Leontine thanks! Glad you like it...I hope it will be good for project-creation
@Jana Thanks and Happy New Year to you too
@natiwata Thanks! We did have someone design it for us, so it wasn’t off-the shelf so to speak, but instead it fitted our garden space better..our land space is limited and we wanted to get it right first time, rather than something which only half-worked…

It is gorgeous, what wonderful light, Such an inspiring place to create- I am so happy for you!

Wow, such a beautiful space to work in! Congratulations
I'm sure this will suit your needs perfectly! -
