Caution: Men at Work

Arcylic and gouache painting on paper by OVELO Fine Arts

We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to point out/apologize for the in-progress appearance of The Studiolo. We're working on the layout a bit (turning it into a three-column, cleaning it up, making it look much prettier), so please bear with us as we make these changes.


Isn't this cupcake topper the cutest? Find more at Designer Favors. In this case, my "party" is my "blog," but the message remains: thank you for coming.

Feel like reading more? Check out a couple of doodads I wrote on Different Reception Centerpieces and Formal Dresses in the 1940s.

Technical Difficulties

For those of you who read The Studiolo on Google Reader, please excuse the wacky-tabaccy posts you might come across today. I was scheduling posts for the upcoming week and some strange things happened, as suddenly, my DRAFTS were viewable on Reader!

I apologize for the half-baked posts with weird non-working links. Please look for the actual posts, which will appear over the next few days. Happy Friday!
