THE FACILITIES AND LIFE AT COBALT
We find ourselves quite busy teaching, painting and living in this beautiful place. Students, faculty, and guest artists are all housed in a comfortable rambling farm house. Everyone shares in the cooking and clean-up duties for dinner each evening. This brings variety and imagination to our dinners and we certainly eat well! From the house, the studio is down a winding path through the woods. During off hours you can enjoy hiking, bicycling, volley ball, badminton, swimming (in season), videos, stargazing, horticulture, and culinary adventures. We can take trips to NYC (2 hours away) to go to the museums and theatre, and we are involved with local theatre groups. Yes, life here is anything but dull!
The house is proving to be a wonderful home. With its eight bedrooms, four bathrooms, two parlours and a greatroom, we are quite comfortable. The huge kitchen Howard designed is a great place to cook.
The studio is really deluxe, with its 40' x 135' paint deck, paint mixing room, great light and plenty of heat, sink space and hot water. It's just a one minute walk from the house but that's plenty of time to check out the ever-changing skies, fields and woods along the way.
