What's In A Name?

Why Honeysuckle Cottage and Wisteria Studio?

Honeysuckle grows on a trellis on the north side of the front porch. Each June its creamy yellow trumpet flowers give off their heavenly fragrance. I can never get enough of it. Cottage refers to our home. Small by today's American standards, it is perfect for us. This place is where I am me. Wisteria grows on a trellis on the outdoor papermaking area that Bob built for me as an anniversary gift. Studio - whether papermaking, drawing, printing, painting, photographing or collaging, I am able to work primarily at home and that is such a blessing.

Honeysuckle Cottage encompasses my life and Wisteria Studio my artistic endeavors.

Susan Ernst: I am a papermaker, printmaker, mixed media artist, horticulturist, amateur naturalist, wife and mother. I love God and the world he created. I delight in discovering and learning new things every day. It is my goal to share these joys with others. That is why I have created these blogs. I would really like to hear from you; it is my hope that these blogs become communities where we share thoughts on these topics together. Please consider posting a comment. Thanks
