Well, many may recall that my first iteration of this blog went belly-up when Google lost all my images. So, it's back, and I now use the "Musings" page (tag) to enter more general thoughts, rather than stories and whatnot.
In my attempt to reconect with my creative muse, I decided to paint the studio. I had originally thought it would be great to have a nice clean, well-lit area in which to record. But over time, I have found it far to clinical. There was no color, no mood, no tranquil space in which to work.
So I am now in the midst of painting. Side walls are a deep cocoa brown, while trim is a terra cotta color. Back and front wall, and offsetting doors are painted in a deep earthy green.
I am hoping it all results in a more calm and serene work environment. Given that it's a small room, the darker colors may make it seem smaller, but I am not looking to fit a whole band in there, so the more intimate feel will hopefully make it more inviting.
Note to self: I need a more comfortable sitting place.
I have finally started to work on a new music...."thing."
I don't even know what it's supposed to be, so we'll just have to see how that turns out...
I will also now feature a "Craw Song of the Week" each week, which may be older material, or stuff in development. Dig it.
