With the kids returning to school today, I'm considering this the real start of the sabbatical work. In order to get the studio ready, I spent a good deal of time working to complete a commission for a residence in Elmhurst, Il. It should be complete by the end of the week.
I also spent some time cleaning, straightening up, and organizing. It's daunting to begin. the studio is like a puzzle that may pieces have to move until the one piece can be put in place. It's been like this for some time, but now it's VERY distracting.
I had to go pick up some supplies for the commission, so I also picked up some materials for the first _material board_. I purchased some plaster lathe...after completing a jewelry cabinet years ago for the Chicago Contemporary Decorative Arts exhibition at the Betty Rymer Gallery at SAIC, I'm going to look at using "real" lathe instead of material to give the impression of lathe. We'll see.
