No Huge Easel or Gigantic North Windows, but...

My studio is beginning to shape up now that I am back in Cleveland. I am lucky to have two fairly large north light windows, and a west window I have to block with sheers on some days. The room measures 24" x 12' and has a cathedral ceiling. The light is great almost all day. Right now I only paint during the day because I do not have artificial lights yet. But here are a couple pics of my easel which I received from the convent, it is a huge workhorse and I love it.

I created my work station on a small budget by building $35 "put-it -together-yourself" filing cabinets, a credenza between (do you recognize it Julie?!) and a 24" x 54" piece of solid pine. Now I have a good place to store my papers.

I would have to say Erin is a mainstay on my "artist's couch" always enticing me to naptime, and my greatest inspiration to do Yoga everyday is my granddaughter, Alex!! Overall I love being in my studio and I wish this for every artist.
