Last year I started thinking about getting a dedicated art studio so that I would not have to paint in the basement anymore. I started looking for one in December and then I found the perfect space near my house in the Georgetown Art Center, and signed on at the first of the year. I share it with nine other artists and we each have our own private studio in a larger space that was once a ballroom. We have shared gallery space, classroom, print studio, kitchen, bathroom and even two pianos. Plus it is above a pizzeria. Been spending weekends there and it's a lovely thing! Last Saturday while I was painting there was an Italian class. The Monday before that, I got to paint to the live sounds of the Japanese harp (koto).
