Beautiful Days Outside

We have so many irons in the fire here at Willow Wisp Farm Studios we are finding it hard to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather we have had here the past several days. For awhile it was extremely hot for here, but the last few days it has been in the low 80's and today it is in the mid 70's. The humidity is very low, so it feels great! I'll be going to Lake Lure tomorrow to teach my painting class, so nice weather is welcome. Not long ago I went to Brevard and painted with a couple of gals and this is the result of that day of painting at Conestee Falls.




Mike has been doing some really neat things. I just discovered he has not been taking photos of this newer things, so we will have to put him to work! He is getting into some very creative and beautiful stuff. Following is a sample of a wall hanging with some local scenery.



I am in the process of completely revamping our three websites and tying them in with a new shopping cart. Once this job is done, it will be less work. For the time being, it is taking up a bunch of my time since I have lots of images to deal with and then there is the overall look of the sites that are changing. The best part is they are all linked together with the shopping cart, so you will feel as though you are in one place instead of three different places.



I love the box above. It is so much fun! This is a sample of all the great new things you will find on our new website once it is complete. In addition to the websites, I have a number of other things up my sleeve these days too. They are all ideas I've had floating around in my head for a number of years now, and I decided it is now or never. So, get ready, exciting things are yet to come from Willow Wisp Farm Studios.
