My Perfect Outdoor Cottage Art Studio & Home Office

My wonderful husband and my father-in-law worked together all day, everyday for a few months to build this BEAUTIFUL art studio, home office from the ground up!  It has been a complete blessing for me and I am overwhelmed with gratitude for this amazing space to center myself, paint and just make things! It was built with so much love and I can't wait to share with you all the new pieces that I create in here for Glimmer of Gold.

My initial inspiration for the exterior was to mimic a small summer beach cottage where I could escape to daily to paint, create, and even meditate.  I was inspired by the Hampton's, Cape Cod, and Martha's Vineyard so I chose light beach colors for the exterior paint - Behr Graceful Gray & Ultra Pure White. For the door color I used Behr's Offshore Mist which I LOVE because it is the perfect subtle, soft blue shade.

Here's a few before & after photos...

This shot makes me want to sing, "...Love is an open dooooorrrrrr!" ;)

Stay tuned for more detailed photographs of the art studio interior and how I chose to decorate a small space to represent my style.  Subscribe to my blog (on the left) to stay updated on new posts.
