NEW STUDIO!
Welcome to my new art space!!!
(well, eventually.)
After many fruitless tours and meetings - I finally found the new home for my art practice. And, it’s not what I thought it would be, but it’s perfect.
A three car garage with a nook and a loft and fits alllll of my criteria from my other post. Or, rather it will fit all my criteria - with a few adjustments.
We’re adding plumbing for a sink/laundry tub and bathroom, insulation and a mini-split for heating and cooling, drywall and track lighting, and eventually replacing the doors with frosted panels. It’s going to be a big, fun project. I think I’ll paint the floor as well? We’ll see.
A peek into the loft!
The nook. For shipping? Snacks?
The first floor will be a combination of workspace and show space; tables and rolling walls for painting and display. I can’t wait to host an open studio and roll around the walls for a nice, cohesive walk-through.
The second floor will be mostly storage, maybe a small painting nook, and possible shelving for my plants by the windows.
I’m trying not to get *too* excited for the space as the remodel certainly won’t be quick -- but I keep finding myself sketching floor plans, mentally taking measurements of furniture, crossing my fingers for an affordable wine fridge to pop up on Facebook Marketplace...
It’s been a long journey to find this place and I am overjoyed to be able to call this place my studio. I’ll be posting photos of the progress here and there to instagram, so follow along if you want to watch the transformation.
