Studio update

We have been working hard in near freezing temperatures to get the new Levigator Press store ready for our grand opening event, which is less than a month away now. Here’s a look at the space we inherited from the comic book shop:

It was pretty dingy, with horrible carpeting, walls full of drywall plugs, and lots of heavy particle board displays to dismantle and throw away (many, many more of those low counters fill the basement).

We started with a fresh coat of white paint to brighten everything up:

And the accent walls, which were a yawn-inducing dark blue, are being painted this glorious colour:

On Friday afternoon the first coat of turquoise went up:

Still to do: tear out the carpet, finish painting the baseboards, and paint the floor with a beautiful bright red paint. We’re super excited about that red floor! And have enjoyed thoroughly trashing the carpeting before we kick it to the curb.

In my haste to finish up with painting for the week, I splashed turquoise paint across my already battered and stained 23-year-old painting boots. A little memento.
