Well, I have to get some pictures of what I am working on tonight. To be honest I have been in a bit of a slump after my hyper productive patch there. That's ok, I feel better now I have rested my hands and my brain and I am ready to get crackin' again! I have a little Jellibaby by Adalee V at the post office waiting to be picked up tomorrow and I think I have a base color picked out. I just need to settle on what markings I want for the little cutie!! I am excited to see her in person!
I am extremely pleased with how my Stormwatch is turning out. Now he isn't the flashiest thing out there, no pinto, appy or even fancy colors for my boy. I am conidering naming him "Wu Wei", for those of you who don't know what that is take a wiki break and read up, it's an interested Teoist idea that suites my Stormy to a tee! I have learned a lot from this boy, especially about the inside of a horses lips! lol!!
Anyway, this blog was intended to be geared towards my studio name. It's just a little rant and a minor insite into this cluttered brain of mine. Now, I did take a long time to decide what name I wanted to use for my studio. With everything I do I had to have the PERFECT name. Well, what better name to represent my studio then a take on a Crysalis, a great tool of metamorphisis from which beautiful butterflies emerge. Deep, I know. It is beginning to expand out from that simple thought of the horses that come to my studio as blank canvases and that I get to set free as beautiful pieces of art.... it's taken on a life of it's own.
I am at a point in my life where a lot is changing and since my very studio is an emblem of change I figure it's a sign to go with the flow. A lot of great thoughts and people have entered my life and I could not be more greatful. One of those people being my current partner in life, Kevin. I couldn't ask for a more supportive, creatively inspiring and amazing friend to join my on this journey. Plus my work has done so well for it's self! I recently sold my little Khassanova and he just kicked traditional resin butt at a show to come out first in arabs, first in color (black/grey/white) and then take a top 10 overall at the show. When he placed second at North West Congress I pretty much balled the entire time (as Chris Jolly or anyone else who was there! LOL). I was so proud and he just keeps going!
Anyway...small rant. Now I am off to scar up my Stormy and take some pics for all of you patient Blog watchers.

This is a Renissance medallion painted to a nice dark taffy (silver). My first attempt at the color and I must say I enjoy the contrast.
This is the little dapple grey from before. Better pics to come.
Ths is a Netsky resin that will probably be up for sale. I love the little cutie but Minkie resins call! hehe. Nice brown tobiano, possibly with a blue eye.
He speaks for himself. I love this picture. Not done but handsome still!
