Ok Artist friends. How small an area do you paint in. My living room,bedroom is now also my studio. Approx 10×15 including furniture. I sometimes paint on work service in kitchen which is even smaller. Approx 10×6.
What your painting creative situation.
Ps I have a lovely view of the road but glorious trees in the front garden.
Cheers

I several “spare” rooms now that children have left home, but still end up painting in the kitchen,because the surfaces can cope better with drips and spills and the light is better as we have a fluorescent tube. (Low energy bulbs are good for the environment, but not for the artist!)
Not particularly small, but I have to clear away each time, so sometimes inconvenient.

It seems that the kitchen is a favourite space. Any more kitchen artists or do you have a shed put aside to create in.

I have the deepest respect for artists who can work in such a small area.

Hi Just to move slightly. How SMALL do you paint or create.I am in the middle of doing ’small’ pictures that are only 7cm squared in watercolours.
The main problem is not just being able to see what I am painting but the litttle brushes often spin out of your hands ususlly dragging paint with them. What about you!
Do you do small tapestries or similar?
Cheers
