Studio Before and After

Pics here!
True to form, the before has unflattering lighting, unflattering hair, no foundation garments, and no makeup.
Wait.
But it's a mess. Yikes.
After is full of things you can't see: bags and bags of garbage thrown out, the tabouret reorganized and mercilessly culled art supplies. With my Xmas booty, I bought shelves and an ottoman.
The middle shelves of the cubes are for works in progress, to keep them at eye level. I'll be adding a flap of vinyl (yay Command Adhesive!) to the middle to keep dust and animal hair off of uncured work.

Wow! Wow and Wow~! You should be proud, that looks great! You've inspired me...I'm going to get after my own studio. :)

Ooh, that looks super classy! It must be really satisfying to have super reclaimed your space like that.

I.... don't know why I said "super" twice there.

Because you rock the superlatives!

Absolutely. Having the mess because of lack of storage was making me NUTS.

You know how it is when something's cleaned and you can hear choirs of angels and beams of light shoot off of it and you can't stop looking at it?

It's like that.

BTW, the cubes I bought are at Target, and they're on sale through today. The eight-cube unit in maple is $10. off!
Eight-cube! (http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=bxgy_cc_img_b_14257441/601-6392361-4740901?asin=B0002I2490)

That came out great. I am so slaggin' jealous (I mean that in a good way, mind you).

I’m not an artist. I'm an electronics money (robots, micro-controllers, that sort of thing). And like artistry, that lends itself to severe disorganization, with a solid helping of pac-rat syndrome. Right now, about 2/3's of the floor in my study is covered with bits of wire, video games I've hacked, a box of mini-bots used for a school presentation, a pile of old technical publications, and various toys that were taken apart in hoped of using them as robots.....

I so need to follow yer example. :(
