My Studio Is Published!

Well I can finally talk about another exciting moment for me as an artist !  Way back in January I had received the most amazing e-mail from the editor of one of my fave magazines 

Cloth Paper Scissors STUDIOS    Catherine Prato!  I almost fell off my chair !  I had responded to a question on the fan page which read, "Do you share your studio space with your daughter, or other family member?"  I answered that I shared my studio with my very creative daughter Michaela.  That was it.  Short . Sweet.  I never in a million years thought it would amount to this .  The e-mail suggested I send in some photos and a write up about my space and because it was in the middle of January and it was soooo snowy and cold.... I freaked out!   I called a good friend of mine Alan Woodworth to take the photos and sent in an old photo of my studio in summer.  I really wish I had more time or had better photos of my cabin in say.... JULY!!  But it was a decision I had to make and so I sent what we could in as quick as I could.  It was a good decision.  

When I got home from Toronto on Sunday , there it was.  Two Spring and Summer issues of my favourite magazine with a page all about my little studio.  I'm so excited about this and wanted to share this little nugget of happiness with you all.  Oh and the really great part about this..... I had a picture of this magazine on my vision board that I created last year !!  Cool or what??  Here are some photos of my spot in the magazine....eeek!
