The studio has definitely been a labor of love since I moved in a year ago..Fresh paint on the walls, new doors, furniture, knick-knacks, etc. and just recently, new lights and wood floors! The loft upstairs is finally starting to look like something! I can't wait to set up shop...hang up my paintings a la gallery style and get to work on some new pieces in my private studio corner. There are no excuses for not producing work like I know I should be doing (at least a new painting a day!) but I know the creativity will flow once I get my bohemian abode ready for action. I think your surroundings are everything. As an artist I believe that the lighting, the music, the temperature, the objects surrounding you have to be juuuuust right. One of my customer's recently told me that my place reminded her of an old art studio you would see in Italy, from the vibrant teal and coral walls softly buzzing from classical music to the rustic chairs adorned with books and glass vases. The Europeans sure had some amazing studios back in the day so I take that as a compliment. Now to get some work done!
