I just wrapped up another open studio, as part of the Whidbey Working Artists Studio Tour.
It's more like a two-day party, really. My studio was jammed with new friends and old. I am grateful to have such curious visitors, it makes the experience much more fun. Visitors even jumped in and tried pulling stringers in the torch. Very brave (pyromaniacs).

I made eight small landscapes just for the tour. They looked so nice once they were in their maple frames.
As always, the lead-up to the tour was a marathon cleaning spree, outside and in. I never did manage to sweep the floor but I put shiny things at waist level so nobody would notice. Sometimes you need to think outside the box.
Thanks to everyone who visited - and for those who couldn't make it, I hope to see you next year -
