While hanging out on twitter recently, another artist posted a view of her basement art studio set up. Well, I have the same view as she does and I took a couple of photos of my art space to show how similar it is.
Take a look at one side of my space:
On the opposite side of the room is the table where I work on my jewelry designs:
The Princess loves my studio space. I’ve set up my sons’ chalkboard/easel for her to use and she has a great time on that. She likes to say “Welcome to my art studio. Have a seat!” She cracks me up. I like how she paints, too.
She works like there’s no tomorrow, present, persistent, motivated, blocking out me and any distractions.
I wish I was like her.
The basement studio isn’t perfect. It’s far from ideal as far as natural light, ventilation and storage is a small problem. But it’s my space and I am glad to have it.
Mr. Resistance loves my little studio space too. He’s always there when I want to get things done. Wouldn’t you know?
