New Year, New Studio
The end of last year was a whirlwind!
In early October, we moved in to our new home.
On October 15, I had a baby!
Felix James. 7lbs 10 oz.
*Burrito Baby*
*Perfection*
And since then has just been a mess of diapers, laundry, baby spit up and doctors visits, along with the best cuddles, smiles, and giggles.
I have been trying to get outside to get my studio set back up for about two
months. It seems like when I do get the time away from Felix, it snows or ices. I have no heat yet in my studio (so all my clay and glazes are being stored in my house, yippee), so I can't take baby out there with me yet. But its okay, because I know Spring will be here soon. I will be so inspired by the by the possibilities: fresh yard and garden, clean house, new studio. I will be busy like the bees. :)
*Looking Ahead*
As Spring gets closer, things speed up around here. Studio, baby, taxes, shows, work! Its going to be so exciting. After a very needed, long, restful (as restful it can be with a newborn? haha) winter, my brain and bones are aching for the sun and warm weather.
I am starting to apply for various shows, most of them in the tri-state area. My goal is to make sure I have at least one a month. I also love the idea of having a show at my home.

*so much potential*
My bigger goals for this year are to be a part of the Allegany County Artist Studio tours and to vend at the Bedford Fall Foliage festival.
If things are going smoothly, I may open myself up for pottery lessons, if I have anyone interested!
