I live in Richmond, Virginia USA
 
My studio space is in the basement of my cozy home.
Clay is my primary focus but I also work in paper, mixed media and fiber so workspaces stretch into 3 different corners.
My pottery area occupies the Northeast corner where I have the advantages of 2 lovely well-lit windows.

A couple of years ago, I had a raging argument with someone who decided that, as we age, we should minimalise and 'reduce our footprint' on this earth Your workspace, spreading into different areas of creativity warmed my soul - and reinforced that some people like you have a lot of diverse creativity to share. Thanks for sharing.

I enjoy the textile Artists studios.Wish mine was bigger but then I would be tempted to buy more stuff.

Great to see such a well organized space. I keep telling myself that I will do that. It must be so helpful when you can find what you know is there. On my list to do - tomorrow.

I wish it was as organized as it looks in the photos. It's hard to keep things in order when projects are ongoing. Every now and then I have to stop and clean house!

    Studio spaces

    Over the next few months there will be an email come into your box on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings.
    It will be an artist’s studio.. a sanctuary for a creative.. with a short comment from the artist and things that they could not live without.
    Links will lead you to the workshop page where these creatives will teach for
    Fibre Arts Australia or to their social media links.

    Another initiative to keep us in touch from the Fibre Arts Team.
    ​
    If you enjoy ‘Studio Spaces’, consider sharing with a friend.
