yesterdays sunset / continuing 10/31/21 oil / cutting the door into my studio from the new storage space / by Philip Tarlow

the new storage room as it looked t 12:30 PM

the new storage room wrapped to protect from moisture until the metal sheeting can be installed over it.

8:43 AM: yesterday, as predicted, was cloudy, with temperatures much cooler than the above normal temps we’d been having. at the very end of the day, as often happens here in the valley, the sun broke through and created a few minutes of spectacular colors.

i should be back in my studio around 11am and may continue work on the 16x20” oil i started yesterday, as the crew picks up where they left off last friday on my new storage room. they should be ready to cut the door into the studio by mid week, and complete work by the end of the week.

1:07 PM update: they’re cutting the door through to the studio interior right now, so that will be done by the end of the work day today.

and, in the midst of all this banging & chaos, i’m doing more work on 10/31/21 oil painting!
