This blog got re-named "Studio Soup" because of my twin grandsons. When they were just learning to talk they had a Grandma Cindy and a Grandma Sue. They didn't say "Sue" ... they said "Soup" and it was so funny. I have a friend that refers to me as Soup now, and so I decided to re-name the blog "Studio Soup". I love it!
So my business has changed from Moss Creek Lane Designs to SuzannaBooneDesigns. I'm planning to focus more on art, and am currently crushing on abstract art. WHO KNEW?!?! When you catch a glimpse of someone working an abstract canvas, it just pulls you in ... the mixing and overlapping of gorgeous color, the mark making with various tools, more overlapping of colors ... adding shapes ... it's a wonderful process that I can't wait to start working on!
I've started following Betty Krause Art and loving what she does ... and I NEED to have a paint wall like she has:

I have cleared a wall spot in what was the old studio (and believe me a full wall is hard to find down there these days!) and will be putting up a paint cloth, some heavy wood screws into studs and be ready to sling some paint on some bigger canvases. FUN!
That's all the long-term dream -- so in the meantime I'm working on cleaning and re-organizing the studio at large to make it more functional. I will also still be doing a few classes. I have a private studio class coming up next month, and have put in a class proposal for Summer Art Sampler for Adults sponsored by the Crossroads Art Council (where I had submitted 3 pieces of my art for an art show last winter -- my first one!!!). That's in June 2020. I haven't been accepted yet, but the lady that receives the applications wrote back "I want to take your class. I love your work". ooooh!! I feel a YES coming! :-)
