A New Space for The Apprentice Studio and Apprentice with the Masters Art Class

Have you ever had to do something you didn't like, in order to do something you do like? There are quite a few times in life that I can think of that are like that. Eating all your dinner, so you can have dessert. Cleaning up your room, in order to go out and play with friends. Weeding the garden, in preparation of planting seeds. For me, sometimes taking the time to sketch or draw my subject before I start painting can feel this way. 

These last couple of weeks have definitely felt this way. However, I am so glad that I did the hard stuff, because now, I get to do the fun stuff! What am I talking about, you ask? I have been preparing my studio space for the NEW The Apprentice Studio and my new art students! Packing and sorting, painting and designing, praying and dreaming. It has been worth it!

I am so excited that I have to share some of the process with you in hopes of getting you excited as well! Here are some pictures to show you what I have been up to.

Oh dear, look at the piles and boxes!

What a complete mess....

Now we are making progress!

I am in love with these new colors!

I will post again so you can see the end result and more information. I hope this encourages you art students, as you look out to next fall.... which seems to be just around the corner.
