Casa de Paja, a straw farm house painting in Chile by Clina Polloni.

In the early years of Chile, even in the 1800’s, farmers planted their wheat in the fields. This was one of their most important source of food. They baked their bread in an open fire, prepared mote con huesillos and other culinary dishes. And when the harvest was all over, they built their thatched houses with straw.

I did this painting from a sketch that my great grandfather, Antonio Polloni did when traveling and painting the country side of Chile in the 1800’s.

Antonio Polloni, my great-grandfather.

How to Built an Art Studio

How to Built an Art Studio.
It All Started with a Dream.

This is video of a slide presentation, step by step, of the construction of my art studio until it was finished:

1. First was the drawings and planning, dreaming about the final studio. I did so many drawings, changed my mind so many times, added space, took space out because I had a budget.
2. Took the plans to the Franklin County to get the building permits. They didn’t approved our plans, so I had to hire a Structural Engineer.
3. Once the plans were approved, we started building in the winter of 2015-2016, through ice, rain and some times snow. We have to thanks Justiniano Teofilo Perez, his brother Efren and his team for the amazing job that they did. With such a good spirit to solve the problems and continue working. We used to meet at 7:00am at the hardware store to get the materials.
4. Finally it was finished, I hanged my paintings. Start exhibiting and the students came to classes.
5. Thank you to my husband for his support and patience and my family and friends.

You are cordially invited to “Marigold Plantation”
