Kate and I visited the Meijer Sculpture Gardens yesterday afternoon in Grand Rapids. She checked out some letterpress equipment for her new studio as well. Awesome clone stamping job by yours truly.

Kate's new printmaking studio


Today Kate and I started to paint her new studio. We did a lot of cleaning and met some of the artists working next door. We left covered in paint splatters.
