Hey, hi there… it’s been a while since I saw you.
\nDays fly by, filled with all kinds of household jobs, a workshop and making art.
\nLet me fill you in…<\/p>\n

First: here’s my desk and yes, it is VERY CLEAN!<\/p>\n

WOYWW #436<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The reason for this urge to clean…?
\nLeonard Cohen!<\/p>\n

It was my birthday last week and my friend Lena<\/a> painted a portrait of Leonard Cohen as a birthday gift. I put the painting in the living room at first, but after a few days my beloved found it a bit uncomfortable to have Mr. Cohen looking at him all the time. The painting had to go to my atelier but there was no space because I had all kinds of posters, postcards and art taped to the wooden wall\/closet doors. So I decided to take everything off and start over…<\/p>\n

… but OHMY… in most cases I had used double-sided adhesive foamtape to hang art on the wall and it did not come off easy… I spend all Sunday afternoon to rub off that @$&*!^&% tape. My fingers hurt, I broke some nails but I managed to get it all off.<\/p>\n

And I put up Mr. Cohen!<\/p>\n

The ‘wooden wall’ is actually closets – the smaller ones in the corners have their doors in the living room, the bigger ones in the middle (see next photo) are the doors to my atelier closets.<\/p>\n

I selected the things I wanted to put back on the wall and used ‘magic tape’ this time, so it will come off easy when I decide to change it again. I also left space to hang future art. (And yes, I also have a magnetic white board to hang stuff on – mostly notes and some photos.)<\/p>\n

While cleaning the closet doors I noticed all the dust and paint stains on my desk surface – you know how it is when you clean: you start seeing more dirt everywhere! Another afternoon was spend on cleaning the desks and window sill. Pfew! The atelier is ready for some creative action again.<\/p>\n

Talking about creative action… my friend and ‘partner in crime’ Jenny de Bode<\/a> came over on Friday and we tought a workshop last Saturday… it was an wonderful and inspiring day! Here’s an impression.
\nEdit:<\/strong><\/span> Jenny just launched her new website<\/a><\/p>\n

Oops, this blogpost is getting long… but I am not planning to leave you without showing you some art… here’s the page I was working on a couple of weeks ago. This spread wasn’t an easy one to finish (thanks for your tips about what to do with the white space) and I’m still not sure if I like it… but I call it finished.<\/p>\n

And now, I’m off to enjoy making my clean desk dirty again \ud83d\ude09
