Happy 2012 Everyone! I hope your holidays were filled with good cheer.
Between our window replacement home improvement project, and 2 art exhibits in Nov and Dec, the past couple of months have been a whirlwind, albeit filled with good times with family and friends throughout. After all the festivities, I’ve had a need to hunker down and cocoon myself at home and away from people – a bit of recovery time to recharge my introvert batteries.
Our open house event was a good time and we met many new friends. For those that aren’t local/weren’t able to make it, I thought I’d share a few photos of our home “gallery space”, since we have made lots of changes in spiffing up our home to make it a showplace for our art and exhibited our newest work (some still in progress) during this event.
Check out the slideshow below to see our old dining room table which Barbara painted and carved into a new work of art, our spiffed up new entry, dining, and living room interior, and new work from our Hanna-Hooly studios:
As I’m sure many of you have, I’m putting together a list of accomplishments for 2011 and then using that to inform and help plan my goals for 2012. It’s a great time of year for reflection and renewal, appreciating all that is and anticipating what will be. We have lots of fun art shows, events, open studios, talks, and workshops already planned for 2012 and there’s sure to be more things that will materialize as the year progresses. I’ll be back soon with more to share on thoughts and plans for 2012.
All my best to you in this new year,
The open house was fabulous-the quality of both artist’s work (Hanna and Hooly) was very impressive!
Thanks Christi! I’m so glad you were able to come by and I hope we can get together more often in 2012. I really enjoy your work, and value your feedback on mine.
First morning back from Spain and I am just seeing the photo gallery — magnificent– So many changes – Congratulations filled with love and excitement to the Hanna-Hooly team!!! including Emma of course.
