A little while ago I posted this picture of a project I'd just started. I finally finished it and I call it "The Playhouse". I remember when my daughter had a very large, very pink, Barbie playhouse. All her dolls and stuffed animals had lots of drama in her playhouse. I thought the playhouse was an eyesore. It was so garrish and it took up half of her small room. This picture is also a playhouse because it holds all kinds of crazy things that don't go together. I had fun making it, but I don't think it will be going to my shop. I've been thinking lately that my shop should have a more cohesive look and not be just a grab bag of all the art I do. I read one article which said that people get confused when they see too many styles and materials. They want a certain look to associate with the artist. Do you get confused? My daughter's playhouse eventually disappeared. I really can't remember where, but I remember thinking that her room looked so much better without it. I think this playhouse may have a similar fate.
