Would you mind if I used them sometime as a basis for an attempt at semi-abstract pastels?<br />Your whole description and photos of the room-painting adventures were hysterical. :) Great finished job!Jala Pfaffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186623108399217523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-27873444349253331112009-11-20T08:03:22.574-05:002009-11-20T08:03:22.574-05:00You have a barn?

Wouldn't it be great to have so much space? I feel the same way with my 17' x 19' studio -I could use more space! I keep all my fabrics for quilting in a seperate room because there is not enought room in the studio. I will be looking forward to the paintings that are inspired by your barn. I bet the barns in your painting won't be gray!patty a.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01861433552460661701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-50843720460172926242009-11-19T14:39:11.750-05:002009-11-19T14:39:11.750-05:00First, I love your blog with all of its honest tri...First, I love your blog with all of its honest trials and tribulations.<br />Second, thanks for sharing all the wall-painting. I'll refer back next time I get a wild hair about paint being the easiest/cheapest change. Btw, I think the rooms all turned out great.<br />Third, being a Skidmore dropout, I understand upstate NY's "old school" charm. I like your barns much better than I did school.SamArtDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322356829966791319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-5194803621218725982009-11-19T10:07:40.256-05:002009-11-19T10:07:40.256-05:00I shudder to think what kind of work our barn need...I shudder to think what kind of work our barn needs. Too hot here for using it for a studio anyway unless you put up walls for some areas to cool. I just had to put in a whole new central ac/heat in my studio now.<br />Repair is never-ending on an old place.CMChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05946336431994312623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-3660819163985641042009-11-19T09:55:15.404-05:002009-11-19T09:55:15.404-05:00Yeah, it's a good foundation!
