I’ve finished painting the interior of the studio, and all that remains is to reorganize, get some storage solutions, and get back to making art. I’ve moved all of the junk out of the studio to an exterior shed, and what remains is what’s being used in the studio business. And a couch. There’s also a couch. Futon, actually.
For those looking for a little background, I’ve spent the last two years working on converting a detached garage into a functional art studio. There’s electricity, but no plumbing or built-in heat. Both things I plan to rectify in the coming years. Currently the studio is heated quite sufficiently with a combination of one 1500w space heater, and one catalytic propane system (which, theoretically, can be used indoors without fear of killing everyone).
I grabbed some old pictures of the garage as it used to look when I first toured the house. It was cinderblock interior, with a broken concrete floor, and full of mice.
Now to get back to some painting.
