Studio view — new work in progress

Here is a funky phone cam view looking back from the front of the studio of some new work in progress (click to enlarge):

View of the new studio

I rented a huge new studio in May, then spent the next six weeks painting the walls, painting out the dark blue carpet, building desks, tables and shelves, and basically transforming it into a great workspace. Here is a view of it – click on the photo to see a larger version:

This view from the stairs shows the main workspace, but the studio also has an office, a back room (the “cut and spray” room), a half-kitchen, and upstairs another room and a mezzanine for storage. After years in a series of cramped spaces, now I really have room to work, and ironically all the work I’m doing right now is small.

This storefront used to be a piano store, but my (very cool) landlord John dubbed it “A Mound of Space“, after seeing the Snarkbook drawing of that name. If there’s a better name for the studio, I’ve yet to find it.
