art studio tour part 1

i figured i’d start of my home art studio tour with some instagram (close2myart) shots.

notice how well i take care of my brushes???
there are probably 20 of them just sitting in that water there.
the really bad part- they are still there 2 days later!

quite the eclectic collection of pieces here.
i’m a sucker for other people’s junk.

i’ll be back tomorrow with my art studio tour -part 2.
hope you are well  my friend.

   I love other people’s junk too! I just rescued a trunk out of my neighbour’s garbage-going to make a coffee table out of it.
   Love the bright happy paintings in your studio! : )

   Michelle, is there a particular brand of brush you prefer? Historically, I have gone the cheap route, but get so tired of the random bristles coming out while painting. If you could recommend something maybe middle of the road – I’m not an artist for a living.

   Can’t wait to see more of the studio!

   I LOVE seeing where you work!! It is always so interesting to see where artists make their magic happen. I am glad to see that I am not the only one who leaves their brushes in the water. I am the worst. Have a happy day & looking forward to seeing more.
