How ungrateful must you th...Dear Kristin & EVA<br /><br />How ungrateful must you think I am? After signing up yesterday it was quite late when I came back to read & visit. Its only today when I read this post and comments properly that I saw your very kind mention. It meant a lot to me as I was having a bad case of self doubt just now. Thank you, it came at the right time. <br /><br />For practical/necessity reasons I do most of my painting & crafting at our kitchen table. But when the walk down is manageable (health & weather wise) I love to use my dilapidated writing hut at the bottom of the garden. I can't manage to take huge amounts of supplies up & down but I keep plenty of writing stuff down there, take my water colour tray, collage papers and easy to carry items. I love to write & doodle down there when I can. I also create in bed - my bedclothes have suffered as a result - its a kind of hideaway when the kids are playing downstairs and/or I need rest but want to doodle/write/cut out. In the summer the kids & I like to paint out doors. I also like cafes and the local woods for writing,doodling, taking photos and dreaming :-)<br /><br />That's enough rambling on. My two babes are wanting my attention. I shall return in a bit to carry on reading & visiting (better late than never).<br /><br />Kat XKat Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14176200521240664479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-161381656288619198.post-13835391074410569122011-04-02T02:58:11.696-04:002011-04-02T02:58:11.696-04:00I made it... a day late.. but never mind at least ...I made it... a day late.. but never mind at least I got here...

Having Paint Party Friday has been a great motivator to get painting, even if I only ended up being able to today. Thanks, again Kristin and Eva! It's so exciting how it's taken off.<br /><br />Reading everyone's comments about where they're painting has been an inspiration in itself. I checked "other." I have a somewhat unusual situation because right now I'm living with my mom and just about all of our farmhouse is taken over with various projects. My current painting areas are on the floor of my bedroom for acrylics and at a desk in the upstairs hallway/sitting area for watercolors. After reading about so many people liking to paint outdoors, I'm really looking forward to warmer weather so I can try it.<br /><br />I'm off to see what everyone's been up to this week. I agree, that it does take a while to get through all the posts, but I really love to see what everyone is creating.Anne Buterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090778223286237879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-161381656288619198.post-15149666809347977942011-04-01T17:18:09.606-04:002011-04-01T17:18:09.606-04:00Hi Eva and Kristen!

For me, its all about the light. I rarely paint once the sun has set. Although, I do have 5 parrots to feed and put to bed in the eves. I always have good intentions of sketching once the birds are covered, but I haven't followed through much with that.<br />Kathrynangelselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15263531546084050008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-161381656288619198.post-62171619292127512802011-04-01T15:30:48.229-04:002011-04-01T15:30:48.229-04:00Yay my first week participating!

However, the ultimate studio is outside in nature, where all of the elements come together to contribute their energy to the painting.
