one year older!

It's hard to believe that it's been a year already...but here we are!
Please join us on Friday, August 28 to mark a few milestones: our one-year anniversary, yes, but also the closing of Sara Grace's tenure as our artist-in-residence, and (drum roll, please) welcoming her to the studio as our newest permanent member!

sara grace...

Our artist-in-residence is a busy woman. She's a very talented musician--played five shows last week(!)--and still finds time to paint a few hours every day.
Every day, it seems, Sara picks a new color palette. Last week, yellows and pinks.

This week: greens and blues.

And today, a bit o' purple:

book launch recap!

Sara Grace played four shows last week...and still got to the studio to paint. (Now I feel like a real slacker!)
Ray & Brian spent all morning making one-of-a-kind posters for the book launch this Wednesday. Consider this your invitation!
