New Studio Tour

Thanks to everyone who bought art supplies and paintings at the sale yesterday to help me downsize for my move.  And thanks to my husband and cousin, the old studio is all cleared out.  Now I’m in the process of organizing and stowing everything.

For my new studio space, we have renovated a seldom-used 12×12′ Florida room on the back of our house. We replaced the windows, added insulation, connected to the house HVAC, and painted.

I’m storing art supplies and finished paintings in another part of the house, but I have enough room for a desk, a 36″ high work table, and some shelves for books and supplies.  The room faces south and there are windows all around, so I’ll have great light.   Maybe too much light!  I will have to work out some kind of light control to avoid glare, but for now, I’m enjoying the view of the garden and golf course.

View from the kitchen door… 48″ square table in center of room is 36″ high so I can work standing up. Desk in the corner serves as drawing and computing space.  ©2013 Lucinda Howe

I’m close enough to the kitchen to stop and stir a pot of soup, although I do tend to forget the cooking when I am in the flow of painting.

      Thanks, Alyson. Not having much room to hang art just gives me more incentive to send it out into the world where other people can see it.
