Home Inspirations: September 2016

Summer is officially over.

Did any readers notice I took an extended holiday away from Designing Home blog?

This is where I spent my summer.

The little speck of a house in the background is my favourite place in the world. The views are spectacular and the ocean in all its moods speaks daily. Duntara is as close to heaven as you will get.

I had a marvellous summer full of creativity, conversation, relaxation, long walks roaming the beaches, whale watching and iceberg viewing directly in front of the house and on and on it goes. I'm coming to fall with a renewed focus on my art practice. It feels very satisfying.

My new work continues to focus on what gets left behind, but I have moved from two dimensional works to three dimensional using found wood and objects to explore Compositions in Time.

Because of your overwhelming support in helping me sell all of my items I've had to go ahead and cancel the sale. I'm so sorry to any of you that wanted to come but because there were so few items I was able to sell them all during the course of the day!
Thank you:)

Its almost time to move again and the closer we get to the new house design the more I realize I won't be needing some of the things that I didn't sell in the previous garage sale!
Its not a lot of stuff this time around and I am adding a few images below of some of the things that will be in the sale tomorrow!
