"Oh..... If I Only Had a Studio Front", this may be what it would look like. Another project I have for my students is to find a photo of a store front that fancy's them and transform it into something that reflects their personality. This is one I came up with for myself(O:
Also, I am in the middle of trying to reorganized my house before the girls go back to school so if I don't respond to some of your wonderful comments please know I am reading them I am just in the middle of piles of things to go through in my house. Some people spring clean......I always have to do a big clean out before school starts so we all feel organized around here. The good news is the little nook in the kitchen where I have been working for the past 4 weeks is no longer. Part of my big reorganization is literally turning my dining room into my studio / Art Journal Classroom. Ahhhh, it's no free standing Studio but it's certainly bigger than my nook in the kitchen & I'm still down stairs where everything is happening which allows me to play in my studio more. My girls are forever playing with me in the studio so I do feel very lucky to be creating almost everyday(O: They will never be able to say they weren't exposed to the Art's (maybe smothered.... just kidding). They love it like I do!!! Have a wonderful day everyone, I will be busy ORGANIZING...

Hi, I love what you did to your journal "studio". and thanks for sharing how you create your amazing work.
ReplyDeletehappy organizing! It's always a good feeling to organize before school starts...is it time yet? lol
enjoy your day!
Happy organizing. We have several little vacant storefronts in New Castle that look like your studio front. I always wish I could have a shop, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea this one is!! You are going to have a wonderful class!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea, Rebecca! Your class will love this exercise. Don't work too hard today!!! Hugs, Terri xoxo
ReplyDeletei love your store front!
ReplyDeletei'd come in for sure!!
Have fun organizing Rebecca,when i organize rooms and cupboards etc. i always come across forgotten things that bring creative ideas. Your art journal looks great!
ReplyDeleteYou are full of inspiration--this would be so fun to be in your classroom!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Check your E mail.
Every time I come here I get more and more inspiration. Love your studio picture.
ReplyDeleteHaving a studio in the midst of the main family area is such a good thing. I recently moved my studio from an upstairs bedroom down to the main floor and I'm so much more productive now. Good luck with the re-organizing. Don't work too hard!
You are so full of great ideas Rebecca! I am sure that your students are going to be completely inspired to art journal after they are taught by you!
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling of summer organizing... my boys tend to grow out of everything during the summer and therefore we have to do an organization session before we go school clothes shopping... and then there's the school supplies shopping (which I love because I am a huge lover of school supplies/art supplies! lol). Happy organizing! Hugs.
ahhhh...what a fantastic page !! it's as if you already do have this store, Rebecca !
ReplyDeletewow, what a great idea for a project! I'd love a studio in an old down town building...or perhaps in the attic of an old farm house :)
ReplyDeleteHi Rebecca,
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are having your own space to be creative in!
How lucky to be able to share your creative space with your girls. Long, happy, memories for them!
Hugs,

I'd love to hear more about how your are making your studio "store fronts", is it a collage? Drawing? Painting? I admire that you're getting lots of cleaning out done before school, I love it when I get going like that. Hopefully after vacation I'll feel up to the task :D
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog and absolutely love your work. I also paint, sculpt, draw, collage faces. I think that is why I am so attracted to your blog. Your gals are so colorful and cheerful-very upbeat! It's amazing how many things can be done with faces isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your wonderful creations.
