Easy Being Green #2


This is my studio mascot. He was a gift from my cousin Joe when I got my wisdom teeth out in 1986.

Easy Being Green #1


The angst about the carpet/studio situation has blown away like a bad weather system and my outlook has improved. I'm back in production mode and the feelings are positive.

Carpeting Dilemma


In case you don't know, my studio is at home. The comfort level of my workspace has been bothering me for several weeks. It had hardwood floors with oddly-shaped pieces of linoleum laid down for protection. I've been trying to think of a way to make it more appealing. Wilson had a lot of green carpet leftover from a job and offered it to me as a floor covering. I thought it might cut down on the noise to the bedroom below, make the workspace cozier, and it would be OK if it got paint on it. Yesterday he started the installation process. It's not going so well. Also, I forgot about the issue of smelly outgassing. Maybe I've made a mistake.
