The front door finally came in. After staining and sealing it was installed and trimmed out.
The masons came in right after that and started their brick work.

Another view of the mason's work.

The brickwork is finished, and I move on to siding and trim for the studio.

After installation of the siding and trim, the whole strructure is caulked and primed.
On the back side, as shown in the photo, the peak of the roof is 21 feet from the ground. You know its tall when
you have to ladder up on scaffolding to reach the top!

Another view of the paint prep.

After prep, the studio gets it paint!

After painting (no small task in itself) construction on the patio cover begins.

A view of the patio cover from underneath. Fairly simple construction, but
what a difference in feel it makes. The underside will be covered in bead-board, and the supporting
posts will have short brick columns surrounding them.

That's where I'm at now. Pending completion of the patio cover, I'll resume work on the inside,
and actually build a studio.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers!
