Day 339 Atelier Vondores

Finally rain is showering The Garden. I am sitting under the rigid pergola and watching the trees as they reach out with their ballerina branches to the raindrops. They are dressing their leaves in that luxurious, see through organza from the life-giving mills of the greyish clouds above. The air is fresh and somewhat heavy at the same time with all the body odours of the plants and the earth. I love this smell. How much I missed this in London! It is full of that imaginable fragrance and great sensuality of Eden: the innocence of living creatures. Everything is gray around me, but the idea of peace in this grayness is priceless. Upstairs is done! It took 4 days, but this morning when I woke up and looked around I knew all the space is going to have the best use during my stay. I start on downstairs in a couple of hours. That will take at least a week and the majority of time will be spent on the studio. From now on I am going to refer to it as Atelier Vondores :-) This is how I’ve been calling it for a long time anyway. It is time to go ‘public’ with it :-) I need to do some scathes for ‘The Suits of The Wharfiors’. Am having some thought about sleeves and collars!
