I just reorganized my artspace to make more room for more works in progress. 1 Reply

I work on many pieces simultaneously - not just mail art: paper, mixed media, collage, panels- and I had run out of space to place incomplete work as it dries. So I built a storage rack with many shelves, shown here in the back corner. Now my…Continue

Here's my artspace today, about like it usually looks. Semi-controlled chaos.

Definitely fascinating, NBS! What a great idea, Vizma. We once had posting of our "junk drawers" but I don't know where that may be. My art space is near the wine-dark sea but can't be seen from my studio apartment (however...wait until summer :-) Anyway, I have a table (also used for eating...apples, lunch, breakfast, etc)

In one corner are the brushes and pencils, some in Erni's tea cup, some in the Heidelberg mug.

Other end is a half-cutter, small but does the job and it is a new purchase to do the chop-chop work for from the large acrylic paintings. Also see eraser stamps in little box on the right  and other artsy junk. 

One, and only one, artsy junk drawer...

but it contains all that is needed for mail art:-)

Yes, especially when it appears to be sinking. Good thing you have all your stuff screwed and glued down.

If you had any idea how hard it is to make mail art on a house boat in the middle of the pacific ocean you wouldn't be so critical.

This is FASCINATING! Vizma, fantabulous idea--don't know if it's nosiness or what, or more probably inspiration and plain old human interest, but I love seeing people's spaces, work tables, closeups of shelves, anything and everything. It's thrilling you started this, and already there are too many to comment on all at once. So I'm behind, what else is new.

David, you've published that stunt once too often. Those of us who know will always reveal your truth--especially KDJ, she is On Your Case!

David, there ain't no wine-dark sea, there ain't no SEA in New Mexico! But you have a fabulous art space. And Dean Mark's "space" overlooking that pool tain't bad either! Then again, Dean can have an art space just about anywhere: Paris cafe (before):

We started out neat and orderly, ordering wine, of course...

made mail art...

had more wine...art space in Paris cafe (afte)r:

Okay, so it isn't wine dark.

Ah, Vizma, your space reminds me of mine. I have a small set of drawers on the right end of the table and my small version of your paper cutter on the left end. It's my favorite tool, also.  Yes, my actual work area get's quite small at times. I love seeing everyone's spaces. I think I'd feel at home in any of them.

Here's a closer look at some of my masking tape, rubber stamps and tiny tins with collage bits in them.

This is my work space this morning. I cleaned it up a bit after yesterday's play time. The center space diminishes as I play, and I have to clean up periodically or  have no room to make anything. I love my little studio. To the right of the work table is my sewing machine and fabric piles, behind me is a bookcase and a tiny desk area with my lap top and scanner, next to that is the ironing board which functions as another work top, and sometimes for ironing the fabric pieces I make. A small but functional space. It used to be our daughter's bedroom.
