I did tidy my studio last night, but this always seems to happen (it was in a similar state yesterday!)! Not a clear work surface in sight. I'm making 'things' to go in frames, as well as everything else. This means I must have every sheet of paper I ever made available to grab, all string and fibre, bookbinding stuff, an assortment of Chinese inks and brushes, finished work and my sketchbooks to look at for inspiration and to confirm ideas in my head...........then I have to try and clear a space to see the collection for a frame (mix of stitch/drawing/found objects/handmade paper) in the frame mount..........this is where I have now started to take things downstairs and take over the dining table..................it will get a lot worse before it gets better, and hopefully some inspiring artwork at the end of it!?!Now, what was I working on..........

It's always fascinating to have a glimpse inside another artist's studio and your basket of found objects has me drooling and longing to handle it all! You have a lovely view from the window too. :)
A studio space full of riches...I always have every surface cluttered too...I get stressed when people want to come and see my studio because it means I have to tidy up. Tidy and clear is good but I am not making anything when it is like that - I like to be able to see things, and then I get sidetracked. My husband Chris tolerates mess on the kitchen table through gritted teeth.
