Ok.....It's Official.....






I am completely addicted to photography!! I think I have taken thousands of pictures since I received my new camera for my birthday. I am probably driving everyone insane. I know I took over 400 at a golf tournament this last weekend and am now redoing all of my images for my Etsy shop! I really can't understand why I didn't appreciate the bark on a tree, a blade of grass, an individual flower stem or catching someone on film when they are not looking before.....I thoroughly love it. I thought I would share pics of my art studio which was originally supposed to be an office - hence the warm orange color! The art doesn't look so spectacular on this particular color but I figure I'll repaint it someday. For now it is just awesome to have a designated place to leave everything out and pick up where I left off each time. I've had people call or stop by wanting to come look and everything was in stacks or leaned up against each other making for an uncomfortable visit to look at artwork you are trying to sell! Needless to say - it is 100% better and now I can get back to networking online.....oh, I mean painting! Until next time......

Hi Julie! I had found you on fuel this morning as well! Thanks for the compliment on the "studio"...it is very nice to have somewhere to spread out although I lost a bedroom! Hope to keep up with you and have a great day!
