Once a year in September I open my studio to clients who would like a glimpse into how I do things. My studio itself is open for people to see as well as a display on the deck of much of my work. This part is quite a project. We clear the deck of furniture and use it and every display panel I own to showcase my work. It’s a nice spot to show the art.Here’s how the process goes….
The first panels go in place. Each measures 3’x6′. This gives us a starting point then it’s on to the next set, then the next and a third set.
Next comes the stabilizer bars and umbrellas.
Making everything stabile and secure is very important. Then the umbrellas are put in place. The trees supply a lot of shade but the umbrellas help with more shade and ambiance.
Bringing in the artwork and deciding where it should go.
It’s up and ready to go. I separate my various genres like landscapes, florals, and abstracts. Now to put the homemade cookies and water out and turn on the music.

Love your style..just discovered you. Trying to find my own. I expect your marketing is very successful and your yearly deck display is wonderful. Videos are really well done and effoicient. Anyway, that’s what I like about you! God bless you.
Thank you so much Susan. I appreciate your kind comments and that you are happy with the videos and blog and hopefully find them useful. Keep at it!
