[Aquanet] Returning

[Lorraine P. Dietrich]

Welcome back Jack !!

You will be amazed how a real studio space will improve your watercolor painting !!!  Try to organize everything so you will have less maintenance to do. Since I got a more efficient studio, my paintings improved a lot in quality and quantity. Don't forget to put some good music. Hope that your installation will go smoothly. Off white walls and good lights will be of some help.

I have another room that I use for office, computer, books, catalogues in bookshelves. This way, all paperwork is separated from the studio. 

It's raining all the time here. Many of my flowers in the garden are ruined because those many days of rain we had. Right now in the province of Québec, it's the day-lily season. 

I'm now working on a large retrospective and recent works " 20 years in Watercolor " that will be presented in a Museum in my native town next november. Hope it will work well. In order to organize everything well , I only accepted a few art events this summer. 

Have a good day.

  I just wanted to thank Ray for helping me re-join the Aquanet list (despite a couple of dumb things I did to mess up the process) and to say hello to everyone here. Although I wasn't a prolific poster, I had been a member of the list for a number of years until the end of last year, when we bought a new home that required us to make a short move. (As I've learned from many moves over the years, long or short, they're all a major pain in the neck.) Since then I've been kept busy with the seemingly endless chores around the house and yard that have put my watercolor activity on the back burner until now.

   

  One of the nice features of this house is a finished basement with an area that I can dedicate to painting. Because it's a walk-out basement (mostly above ground), a glass slider door and a pair of sash windows provide ample natural light during most of the day. I'm really looking forward to getting everything set up and starting to paint.

   

  Anyway, it's nice to be back with the group again. I've definitely missed the give and take of information and the friendly, helpful discussions about watercolor and art in general.
