I want my studio to look like this!
This is what I want my studio to look like. I LOVE it. It's so simple, pretty, inspiring and fun!
These photo (above and below) is from The Storque's post about the studio of Christine Tillman. It makes me want to decorate my studio, which I re-organized two months ago.
Also, doesn't she seem like a neat person to know??
I love the hilarious stuffed cat about to maul her face, and those giant tree ring slices hanging out under her desk.
White is such an interesting color for a studio because you know you're going to make a mess all over it. But at the same time, it looks like her studio space isn't much larger than mine (and has a sloped ceiling to boot), so the white opens it up.
Here is her etsy shop:
Check her out for some great paper products (from stationary to 3D work with paper). LOVE IT.
My studio space hasn't much changed since when I redid it back on Halloween:
The room is a little over five feet wide (you can almost touch the walls if you stretch your arms out from side to side) so I had really minimal space to work with. But making floor-to-ceiling shelves really helped open up the space in the back so I have room to move around. I still have to cut large sheets of paper on the dining room table but I can do most of my work in here. Even painting and block printing! See my neat fold-up travel easel?
I love my studio space because I really have so many different kinds of art supplies I can do whatever project on a whim. Painting (acrylic or watercolor), printmaking (block or screen), fabric dying, printing on fabric, found object or oven-bake-clay sculpture, sewing, drawing, photography, video editing, bookmaking, scrapbooking, jewelry, embroidery, whatever I want to work on, it's here. It's kiiind of ridiculous and awesome at the same time.
Maybe I should make some fun paper chain decorations and hang them from the ceiling, too...
