While working on The Cabins of Wilsonia, I took 2 friends for a short driving tour of the cabins. One of them laughed at me when I said for the fifth or sixth time, “This is my favorite cabin!” She wondered how many cabins could possibly be my favorite.

There was a pattern. All of my favorites had shingle siding. Have a look at a few:

Look what happened to my own drawing studio as a result:

My studio as it looked while I was working on the book.

My studio as it now looks.

If you would like to see my studio and 14 others in Three Rivers alone, Saturday and Sunday, April 14-15, is the South Valley Artists Studio Tour.
