Notes from January 2011

Moving studio from St Johns to inner NoPo

At the moment, and until the concrete floors at the new studio get cleaned and re-sealed, our equipment is still located at our studio in St Johns. Though the square footage of the new studio is slightly larger than the St Johns place, the layout limits the amount of stuff we can pack in without the space looking more like a storage unit, than work studio. So, we'll be looking to unload a number of things to reduce our foot print. If you're in search of a work bench (60x30), modular metal utility shelving, folding table, or antique film equipment, let me know as we'll be unloading items during January and February in an effort to move by the end of February. We both wish the move was more instant, as the convenience of simply going downstairs to do project work is very appealing, but it's going to take considerable effort to sell, donate and trash the excess and move the remaining items to the new space. For now, I will attempt to relish the fact that very soon, we'll be able to walk downstairs to do project work or watch prints in the collection. I complain a little, but it's actually an exciting time. We've been working with this goal in mind for what seems like a very long time, and the live/work situation will only help to increase our productivity.
