T-minus about a week!

Hi Everyone.  Well, it's official-- I have the cutest welding shop and nicest husband on Earth.  "You want to paint the shop HOW many colors??  Well, okay."  "You want it done by when?  And it's HOW hot out??  Well, okay."  Is this is, or is this not, THE absolute prettiest welding shop you've ever seen, anywhere?  I'd go as far to say it's the prettiest IN EXISTENCE.  (That's right.  I said it.)

You really need to come check it out in person next Sat (8/21), don't you think?? 

I've been working like crazy, and it's been HOT.  But I'm liking how things are coming along.  Here's a crazy shot of my reflection in a chrome bumper before I began cutting it up to make...

 This.

 Some of the stuff I'm producing reflects my past work-- very "nature-y", but abstract.

This one is only about half-done, and I usually don't like showing things before they're done, but it's what I was working on today, and I love the background piece.  So here's a sneak peek.

I also am working on a number of tables.  So far I'm still fooling with the tops, trying to get the finishes just right before embedding stones or whatever I decide into them.  So far, so good.



 I hope you'll stop by and see not only my work, but the other artist's as well.  It should be a pretty cool little show, and my place is very shady, and usually almost 10 degrees cooler than "up in town."

Here's a map link.  I'd recommend wearing good walking shoes, because parking will be limited, so more than likely you'll have to walk down my rather long driveway. 

If, (fingers crossed and re-crossed here) it's a rainy, terrible day, I may cancel and reschedule to the following weekend, or the next day.  I'll post anything to that effect here, and send out an email to all of you on my *list*.

Hope to see you!  :)

Dude. That's all I can say. Dude!

Okay, I can say more. Your welding shop rules. You all did such a great job with it. If I lived anywhere near you I would surely come and check it out. Good luck!

Thanks Paul. I suppose it's asking a bit much for you to come all the way from Penn. :)

The studio is beyond anything I could have ever imagined! I bet it's even better in person.

I'm riding my horse in a clinic on Saturday. I was hoping to get a morning slot but they put me in at 2:00 and need to be there for a potluck by noon. I still hope to stop by on the way to Zimmerman.

I love the work you're doing so I definitely want to check it out.
