It all happened rather quickly and unexpectedly, but I jumped on the opportunity to make the switch. I&#8217;ve been in Studio F since the <em>Art Studios at Mission Mill<\/em> opened in October of 2014. I started out sharing the space with my good friend Tory, then she moved out into Studio B sometime in 2015. For the past year, Studio F has been my space.<\/p>\n<p>Two weeks ago, one of our studio members decided not to renew her lease, creating an opening for Studio A, a lovely corner studio overlooking the stream and the Willamette Heritage Center. Two artists were interested in the studio, Rollie and myself, so it required a dual, I mean a drawing, which occurred a week ago Friday. We sought out an independent person to do the drawing. <a href=\"http:\/\/maxmarblesbookbinder.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Max Marbles<\/a>, our resident bookbinder was selected, and the drawing took place, with Max&#8217;s son Spencer, doing the actual drawing. <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><del><br \/>\n<\/del><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Studio-A-October-2016-30.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7361 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Studio-A-October-2016-30-231x300.jpg\" alt=\"studio-a-october-2016-30\" width=\"231\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Studio-A-October-2016-28.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7359 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Studio-A-October-2016-28-172x300.jpg\" alt=\"studio-a-october-2016-28\" width=\"172\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Studio-A-October-2016-33.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7363 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Studio-A-October-2016-33-155x300.jpg\" alt=\"studio-a-october-2016-33\" width=\"155\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My name was drawn and I set to work putting my mark on Studio A, rushing against the clock in time for our monthly Art After Dark Open Studios.
