Everyone Needs a Hideaway

Did you ever wish you had a house at the beach or a cabin in the woods?  A place that was quiet and peaceful?  My place would be at the beach. The beach conjures the sound of ocean waves and a lazy days. 

This is my imaginary beach house by the sea.  It's quiet, has a wonderful space with lots of windows for my studio and has a screened in porch that faces the ocean where I can nap.  It also has room for a least 5 art friends to visit and play for hours on end.  Since it's imaginary, it also has someone who cooks for us so we can play with paint and ink all day long.  Do you have an imaginary place?

The house is made from a very cool piece of paper I've had for years. It's shiny and looks like real wood. I torn the edges to give it a rustic look.  The windows are a gelli print that I stenciled with a screen pattern.  The tree was done with a catalyst tool and the leaves were made with a pallet knife.  The letters are stick ons that someone was getting rid of and of course I took them.
