Today's one of those rare days that my Art room is semi-tidy, so I thought I'd take the chance to do one of those #meethemaker "here's a glimpse at my workspace" posts. . . So this is my Art 'Studio' also known as the front bedroom of our house. (One day I'd love to get a nice big shed in the garden, or maybe a loft conversion... one can dream!) . . I've always been a scavenger and most furnishings and storage in my art space were freebies I saved from skips. One man's waste is another's treasure. It's taken a lot of trial and error to make these odd bits and pieces work in the space but it's finally at a workable level. . . My system at the moment is an L shape of tables, one for drawing, one for experiments/ drying and one for cutting down work and packaging. There's usually piles of handwritten notes... to do lists and ideas loitering everywhere. Once in a blue moon it gets too much and I have a good sort sesh. -Epic bonus, today I've found some notes for some awesome ideas I had at the beginning of the year! I'll probably remember to start them soon... . . Just off shot is some garage shelves where I stack materials, reference books & on going projects. 'The Beast' aka my printer. And one side of the room is dedicated to boxed work ready to take to events . Organised Chaos here 100% . . . #meetthemakermondays #myworkspace #meettheartist #organisedchaos #orangefruitcake #orangefruitcakeart #beckyfoxton #artist #artspace #workspace #workinghard #hardworker #artistofig #skipfinds #wasteless #reducereuserecycle #nolandfill https://www.instagram.com/p/CClN_rpF3hE/?igshid=rg7inr295hb7
