To Messy Creations

I went to a wonderful artist's reception last night. A sculptor I know just opened a studio. It is an incredible space. And last night it was incredibly clean. That was one way we knew it was brand spanking new! A working studio is not a clean studio--creating can be a messy process.

This sculptor has created a wonderful space for painters, photographers, ceramicists and sculptors to create their art. The energy in the space was not just the people there to congratulate him--the space itself had great energy. You knew it was a labor of love. It showed.

Many, many artists were there. And there were friends and family from all walks of life. And the neighbors. Everyone turned out to wish this man well.

It was a fun evening. Lots of talk about art, life, philosophy. There was music and dancing, especially by the children.

Ron--congratulations on your new space, best wishes for much success, you definitely deserve it! And may your studio see many, many happy and messy days ahead.
