Moving Home

We're moving our home. Which means we're moving our Studio. Yikes! Can you imagine the chaos? Everything else is straightforward. We have little furniture as we've been renting a mostly furnished home and are moving into a mostly furnished home (oh, yes! we're very good at manifesting what we need.) However, the many wild and crazy parts of our Studio must somehow be organized and packed. My part is the worst, admittedly. But I also need to keep doing art during this time so our Gallery has no holes. Let's just say it will be a relief when its over (mid-April) and we begin to settle into our new location in Freeland on Whidbey Island. (NOT leaving the Island!!) The new house is lovely, with much sun and sweet views, much closer to the Gallery. What new art will come out of our time there? Stay tuned!

Etsy

We've fallen in love with Etsy.com - the on-line artist/craftsperson's store. What gorgeous merchandize! Lovely format, easy purchase - I'm addicted to browsing the Shops. Check it out! http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5807323

Spring!

What a wonderful winter since our opening at Greenbank Farm! Despite storms and rumors of an economy in chaos, we've had a steady flow of the most wonderful people through our doors. Many folks have followed us over the years and express much delight in our re-opening in a new location. Others stop off the highway to explore and are pulled in by the color and variety of our space.

Our Art Walk & Wine Tasting nights (First Fridays, 4:30pm to 8:30pm) have been a huge success - for all of the Galleries here at Greenbank, as well as the Wine Shop and Cafe. We're the happenin' place, it would seem.

Amongst all this art activity, we found out in December that we needed to find a new home. Our great landlady (and friend, I hope!) is returning to her home. We'd already been discussing a need for change, so this was our cue. We created a "Manifesting List" for what we wanted, put a free "wanted" ad in the local paper, and by the end of January the perfect house (and owners!) came our way. Wanting a spring move with plenty of time to pack worked perfectly for all of us. We get the keys mid-April and make the leap. The new home will lend itself beautifully to art, with new configurations of how we create our art spaces. Its sunny and much closer to the Gallery. Check back to see how the move might begin affecting our inspirations!

A Happy & Glorious Spring to All!
