For several years our hearts have been in the beautiful Berkshires and we knew it was just a matter of time before we bought our dream loft in a walkable artist community. Happily that day has come!
The Eclipse Mill Artists Lofts are dedicated live/work lofts for artists only and home to a community of artists, living and working in a former textile mill in North Adams, Massachusetts. Our 4-story building houses painters, potters, textile artists, print-makers, musicians, ceramic artists, photographers, a dancer, writers, a paper maker, a book dealer specializing in art books, and two galleries.
We bought the Garden Loft which overlooks the Hoosic River - 3500 sq feet of absolute joy - and the only loft on that level - so it's very private. We're driving up tomorrow for the closing. For us, this is a dream come true and we're very excited to begin the next phase of our lives together. Here's the view of our backyard garden area which is very peaceful. I'm so blessed to always live near water!
With all of the illness and loss that has happened since last August, renovating and organizing this space is exactly what we needed to devote our full attention to. The Universe is ALWAYS on time!
Lots of pics will follow and we hope you'll join us in our exciting new adventure as we proceed to turn a semi empty space into our new home and studio.
thank you for your well-wishes sandra. we're sure we'll meet again down one creative path or another!
