Welcome and here's an inside look at my studio!
Sometimes it's really clean.
And sometimes it's not.
I have two walls for hanging paintings, and two walls of windows.
Below is from the day my nephew came and helped me clean my studio. Loved that!
I have paintings everywhere.
I have a couple tables. One holds a rack that my husband built to display my daily paintings at shows.
The other holds the shadowbox that he and our sons made for me. I love it. It's definitely been an essential tool.
There's also enough room to store my brushes and paints and little things that collect in a studio:
~coloured glass bowls from a junk shop~
~well, I am Canadian... : ) ~
I also have little bits of inspiration taped here and there. Quotes, thank you notes, and art cards (below is a card from a show by David Alexander). There are art posters taped on my door and a photo that makes me laugh propped on a window sill.
I am hugely grateful everyday for my studio. But aside from my cozy interior, there are also times that my studio is this:
and this:
and even on a few very special occasions, this:
I love my job.

Hi Kim, I love your light and airy studio...it's fabulous!! I have been touring the Artist's online studios...it's a wonderful idea! Love your paintings too!
Thank you all for nothing....I have spent two...yes two hours on your carnival of studios. I am joking with the sarcastic opening but wanted ALL of you to know I thoroughly enjoyed the visits. The Internet is a wonder. I would never have known you or seen your wonderful passion without this invention. I garner a "little something" from all of you and as an artist who is trying to find her way I thank you for putting yourself out there for the likes of a "whole world of "me"s.

Wow, I LOVE those windows! Fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
I am definitely in envy. You have space and assistants who help you clean, organize and create necessary gadgets, wow!
Wow, what an AMAZING space you have!!! That light is fantastic!!! I think I would never leave! :0)
Thank you for inviting us into your studio. And for the inspirational quote!
Kim I commented initially about your glorious studio but obviously didn't publish it properly .....I envy your space, light, airy, different zones and a talented artist that inhabits it. P.s. a handy husband too.
A really wonderful space for painting! It looks like you have everything there you could possibly need. Loved to see it. Thank you for sharing!
Awesome studio visit, Kim!! Those windows are to die for. I love that you paint both large and small, and are so darn productive! Leonard Cohen is an essential in my studio too :)
What a wonderful space - I love seeing the behind the scenes view:) Love your work - just fabulous.

Incredible space..so cool to see your work on the walls..to see how big and beautiful it is..all amazing stuff..all good and creative and beautiful. Also love the idea of seeing all of you cool artists and getting to see your spaces
I LOVE seeing this peek into your studio! It is the stuff my studio dreams are made of. My studio consists of a four by four foot area. ;) Is your studio in your house or do you rent a space?
WOW! What a studio. Love your walls to hang your work. Also love what your husband built for you. Thanks for letting me in.
Awesome space and such wonderful art- the "nephew wall" is fantastic. I need to get some of those inspiration bits! Thanks for letting me peek and explore.
Wonderful and inspiring post Kim. Perhaps I'll take part next time, I was just too run off my feet, and my studio!!!! Not a pretty sight.
XOXO Barbara
