Who was Cassandra?
In the Iliad, she is described as the loveliest of the daughters of Priam (King of Troy), and gifted with prophecy. The god Apollo loved her, but she spurned him. As a punishment, he decreed that no one would ever believe her. So when she told her fellow Trojans that the Greeks were hiding inside the wooden horse...well, you know what happened.

Oh, a glimpse into your new studio?! Looks fabulous, and how exciting to be able to start with a clean bright new space and arrange it to suit both your needs. Is that a painting leaning on the side, perhaps one of yours, Beth? And a bottle of champagne to toast to a creative future? I add my good wishes and congratulations. Interesting that you are showing this on July 4th and just a few days after Canada Day - keeping your hearts in both.

Congratulations - I could finish my PhD in there!

What an exciting space, I can't wait to see you make it your own

Thanks, all. Marja-Leena, that's a painting *of* me, by a friend, not one of mine, and it was a bottle of very ordinary red wine! But we're excited about starting from scratch in a new place and making a studio space that really works for us.

Great space! And a balcony too! I hope there'll be more pics of the stages of its transformation into your and J's workplace. Champagne to you both, wish I could be there to celebrate with you.

What a wonderful thing. An empty studio. Mine is piled high with my kids' stuff.

I have a curious negative reaction. I would be totally daunted by that vault -- but, obviously this enclosure won't define or limit you. After all, a pock in a rock wall doesn't mold the climber's toe! Nice lead!
