Georgia is one of those innately clever people. Her instinctual design sense goes bone deep. Georgia's ability to layer and change and layer again is always an amazing process to watch.
Each time I visit her beautiful home I gaze in wonderment at her vignettes. So thoughtfully and carefully crafted, but again looking so natural and carefree.
She received a painted wingback chair from me many years ago and wanted a little update and facelift for her pretty little chair.
This poor old 1950's yellow tile counters and plywood cabinets had seen better days. It was time for an update and she wanted to paint the cabinets red and cream and the old yellow tile to resemble black and gray granite tiles.
I love concrete. Carved, Molded, Stained. It's a great artist medium. Here are a few of my concrete projects. As I come across more pictures I will post. It's fun to remember. Document everything you create. There are so many fun things I have done and don't have a single picture to remember.
I was commissioned to paint several fall themed canvas pillows. I sewed them from scrap canvas adding burlap. I like to paint pillows after they have been sewed and stuffed. It seems to make a difference with composition.
I craved fun new front doors. These doors were left without any varithane or other protectant. With the moisture in Oregon I need to make sure these doors are waterproof. I took some time figuring out a fun and unusual color combination and texture. .
This spacious kitchen was very utilitarian but lacked a bit of color and flash. I am here to fix that...We had remodeled this kitchen taking the 1945 kitchen space into this century.
The counters are now a chocolate concrete and the cabinets started out as white off the shelf storage.
This was a fun project. I wanted an oversize wall clock. I have seen some really cool wood ones, but I didn't want a wood or metal clock. So I decided to paint my own.
This wonderful house had some "uneasy" areas. This was a walk-way to nowhere and was very difficult to decorate. The amazing rod iron handrail made it almost impossible. The client wanted a painted family tree for all her family portraits and family collections.
I was set to paint a very large branched tree trying to figure in all her collections. Which were cool. But I didn't want the wall to complete or take away from the incredible iron work. We also had to contend with a stove pipe right through the center of the wall.
I drew and cut out a tree stencil from many taped pieces of brown rolled paper. As I started to draw the tree on the wall, it just didn't feel right so I stopped, took a seat and watched the wall as the sun changed angles.This is what I came up with. ...

Our Savior school no longer charging tuition Our Savior Evangelical Lutheran Church and School began refunding money Jan. 1. Check out this story on HometownLife.com: http://www.hometownlife.com/story/news/local/milford/2015/02/06/savior-evangelical-lutheran-school-free-tuition/22977167/

Our Savior Evangelical Lutheran Church and School will no longer be charging tuition for its students.
The decision seemed to be an easy one for the K-8 school in Hartland, just across the Highland Township border.
“While most churches are struggling financially throughout the years, we have always been able to fight the temptation to raise tuition,” said the Rev. Christopher Thoma, Our Savior pastor. “We simply trust that the Lord will provide, and removing the burden of tuition further enhances the church and school mission objective.”
That objective is to “live its mission to teach the word of God’s law and gospel by internally supporting the cost of educating all students that attend its school,” according to an Our Savior news release.
Because the school is 90 percent fixed expenses, school officials never considered that an issue when making the decision.
“So whether or not we have two or 90 kids, we just have to compensate for the 10 percent of expenses, which can be done without charging tuition,” Thoma said.
Our Savior is one of the only private schools in the state that accepts students without charging tuition.
Thoma anticipates many students will apply once they learn about the free tuition. The school has 70 students, but it can hold more than 200.
“We didn’t go blindly into this,” Thoma said. “Students will still have to go through the application process.”
This process is the same as it’s always been. Students and parents fill out an application and are interviewed by Thoma, the principal and teachers.
“We definitely are going to set a cap on how many students enroll,” Thoma said. “We are looking forward to the traffic this will bring to our church and school.”
“We’ve already established ourselves for 35 years, so the consumer-driven mindset is something we actively want to get rid of,” Thoma said. “We want to show that good, quality teaching doesn’t have to be set at a price.”
Before this switch, the church and school were established as a parochial school, which means member family children attended tuition-free and nonmembers were required to pay.
“We want to blend that,” Thoma said. “Overall, we want to show that we can invite all who attend as one without putting a price on our quality education.”
