Fresh Paint At Adrift Art Studio


Excitement is building as C.S. Alexis begins putting the Adrift Art Studio in to place once more. She has not stopped working as an artist since the big flood wiped out her work area but it sure did slow her down. Not to mention all of the additional turmoil that rebuilding from scratch caused, it has been a war but C.S. Alexis has unwavering determination and perseverance.

Gathering her tools and supplies together she has reached the point where having a home art studio is no longer a dream. No it is not what she had before the flood but with an optimistic viewpoint she is certain that this studio will become the best ever. It all takes time and C.S. has put a multitude of hours in to this project. Her intention is to have a Grand Opening very soon and is currently busy organizing this space in to a functional, productive art studio. Adrift Art Studio LIVES.

Pulling It All Together







Adrift Art Studio survived and struggled to resurface as a bigger, better place to work and nurture the ideas and creations of C.S. Alexis. The studio was all but wiped off the map in a major flood that employed the natural destruction of water and mud to do the dirty deed. The majority of materials, tools and furnishings were lost and a visual survey offered insight as to just how difficult it was going to be to start over, rebuild and carry on.






The tangible removed, dirt and mud scrapped and scrubbed away, utilities restored and a fresh coat of paint applied to the repaired concrete walls cast a brighter light on the situation. Not all was lost in the flood. It seems a little water, or a lot of water cannot stop a greater force...... what is a greater force than flood water and moving Earth?





The force of CREATIVITY.
