We LOVE the new house...never been lived in, builder's warranty, we've had repair people, electricians, plumbers, fixing things no one ever noticed because it hadn't been lived in.<BR/><BR/>Another massive day yesterday with the movers...and the studio is all in boxes upstairs. Family coming in for turkey day on wednesday...<BR/><BR/>We're pooped, but it is a good pooped. Another week and the old house will be completely empty.<BR/><BR/>thanks for kudos on 'eyes for you'. I can't wait to get new space set up!VickiRossArthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09258305858132024962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902607246533124427.post-64933885820350854882008-11-21T18:29:00.000-06:002008-11-21T18:29:00.000-06:00Whoa!

I am SOOOOO jealous! We won't be looking until spring. <BR/>I just moved my studio and used 2 men and a truck- it was great! They grabbed everything and then put it where I told them. Lots better than a husband would mind me. ;-)<BR/>And, congrats on your award- I already said that was a strong painting when I first saw it. Enjoy your postings and comments about plein air painting. It has been too dang cold here lately- 23 at night and 40 high with 25 mi per hr winds. BRRR! I can't wait to get to FL in a few weeks.<BR/>Keep up the postings!<BR/>DurindaDurinda Cheek, Fine Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04419537093540606442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902607246533124427.post-34329973475003224092008-11-19T17:27:00.000-06:002008-11-19T17:27:00.000-06:00I just subscribed Mz Linda to your blog sweetie. ...I just subscribed Mz Linda to your blog sweetie.

I can't wait to see where your explorations will land you. Looks like you've conquered pastels. And your oils are already looking mighty good too! WHAT? You're not giving me a piggy back ride upstairs???

I didn't mention that the original photo showed her right arm up eating a pastry. It didn't add anything to the portrait, and then I would have had to do a hand with a messy treat.
