“Roxy,” monoprint
_____________
Steve and I are combining our home and studio into one downtown location this month. We have the keys to the new place, and I’m writing from there now; we are both really excited about this change!
In the print above, “Roxy,” is ready to play. (A dog in this play position is one of the best things about having a dog, don’t you think?!)
In my Year of the Fairy Tale class, I’ve given myself the mandate to focus on experimentation and play, as I believe it makes for more exciting, meaningful, and personal work.
Apparently Steve and I like to be similarly experimental in our lives. ;)
Living in downtown Seattle is an experiment, and it might not work!
But it MIGHT!
Wish us luck!
You will never know unless you try, right? Good luck, Carla!
It will be great
I’m so excited for you. When our kids were young we moved for a year to Colorado from Tucson and it was one of the best years of our lives. We’ve thought about moving downtown too. (We live on the eastside) and might just do that at some point. Looking forward to hearing how this all plays out for you. Have fun!
Congratulations on having the courage to try this experiment! Something tells me that it’s going to be wonderful for you.
Wish you the best of luck..There’s always options xo
You are never to old to try something new. JUST DO IT. Let the Adventure begin
What a beautiful space! You’re on a roll, and even though I’m here in Ohio, I feel strongly that it will all work out. May you find great happiness in your new home!
It looks lovely! Best of luck.
I wish you the best with your relocation. I look forward to doing the same sometime soon.
Good for you! The best of luck in your new space!
Luck to you both, then! My sense is, you’ll do fine! Better than kicking yourself for not taking a chance!
Love the feather duster! And the lights! And the floors! And the windows! I think you’ll be just fine…
Beautiful space! Seattle is a great city, and I think you are going to love it! Wishing you all the best!
Luck! :)
Much good luck!! Looks beautiful! I’m sure you and your husband will love it!!!
Good luck and happiness for your move
It just might work out wonderfully! The space looks fabulous and those windows incredible. Imagine the creative energy you’re both going to have in this space! Good luck on the move!
When you pay too much attention to the door that is closing, you miss the one opening up for you. You and Steve are not letting that happen and with attitude like you two have, it will be a piece of cake.
So exciting to move! Just moved from bedroom community to center of small city where I can walk everywhere . Lots to do and 1 block from art museum. Yes I do love it when a dog wants to play and you have showed it so well in your print!
So exciting! It’s a great looking space. Good luck on the moving part.
Congratulations, good luck and best wishes to you and Steve.
It will be a great adventure!!!! What will the fairies do here?!!!! Dance!!!! Dance with them!!!!
Wishing you all the best and new adventures to come. Looking forward to seeing your new placed filled with love and “good stuff”
Thank you, everyone! We are excited and nervous. But mostly excited. ;)
It’s gorgeous Carla. Are you keeping your home as well? Or is this a BIG move. I’ve taken many risks moving and always feel it really clears the cobwebs and puts everything in perspective. There is a clean and wonderful feeling about a new move. The senses perk right up.
Thank you! We’re combining home and studio into one space. It’s large, which is good. ;)
This is a wonderful move – just think of all the time and gas you are saving by combining your home and studio into one. Congratulations!
A new adventure in your lives, how exciting! Hopefully combining work and home will leave you more time for yourselves! Congrats to you both on your new space!
Wishing you luck! Your mew space looks great in the picture :)
The very, very best of luck to both of you. Love
Good luck to both of you in your wonderful new space!
Good Luck to you both in your wonderful new home. I typed splace!!
Beautiful! It reminds me of the apartment where the movie “Flashdance” was filmed. Love the light. Enjoy.
it looks amazing!! can’t wait to see more pics!
That looks like a beautiful space to experiment in!
I think you are going to love it!
I wish you and your husband all the best in and with your new home!

Your new place looks magical. Good Luck
Good luck, Maybe you are neighbors with my brother-in-law’s architecture office replinger hossner architects. http://www.rhoarchitects.com They do some cool stuff. Does this mean you will have a place to host workshops???
I’m excited for you and glad the two of you are “going” for it! If you don’t do it now, when will you? The space looks gorgeous…I wish you and Steve lots of fun in your new home/studio :)
The very BEST of luck to you both! Gorgeous room. Seattle is a wonderful city. Justine Heisel
Very exciting Carla! I congratulate you both on the courage to try something new! Not easy as we get older but so liberating when we are willing to take the chance. Cheers to you for new adventures! After all, isn’t this what life is about?! This is why I keep signing up for all your online classes!!! :-)
What a beautiful space! Congratulations and best wishes! “Home is where the Heart is!”. Thank you for your past classes and I’m looking forward to more! Cheers!!
