I'm finally in my new studio and I'm excited to get to show it to you today! After my brief studio visit, I'll show you the process I used to create the very last little painting I made in Vermont. It has been a seemingly long, but relatively fast and very busy journey to get to Maine. We miss our home in Vermont and at the same time, we are already finding many reasons to love being here in Maine. I hope you enjoy my studio visit and my brightly colored little abstract.

Here’s a list of the materials I used for this painting: (***I now have the ability to monetize my site. This means I can include links to the products I use and when you make a purchase using these links, I will get a small commission. You won't pay extra for doing this and you will help me earn a little bit of money along the way, so I can continue doing this work. Please note that I will only ever add links to products that I actually like and use. Thanks in advance!***)

I was recently asked about my studio lights. They are great because they have clamps and I can move them around my studio. I got them on Amazon - https://amzn.to/3gyoT6P
