Task 6

To invent a new personal studio mode of practice I would have to take into account that I like to use lots of different mediums. At this point in time I like using the following or can see myself going to use:

Embroidery

String/Textile sculptures

Painting (acrylic/oil)

Collage

Floral/natural arranging

Illustration with markers and pencil

Digital Art

Creative Writing

Creative Makeup/Costume

Photography/Film

If I had my own ideal studio it would have to be a large-ish size but manageable. With enough wall space for hanging my own work up or taking photos. Preferably in my own house/flat or very nearby to where I live as I get most inspired during the late evenings. Ideally the studio would have to have a lot of light so I can see my work properly and take well-lit photos or film. I would have a lot of various reference/inspirational images stuck on the wall(s). I would have one desk for textile work and a shelf unit where I can easily see all my materials (as they’re currently all just in boxes where I can’t see them). I would have a desk for painting and have all my paints laid out neatly. If I could I would have the desk very near a sink so I could clean up my brushes, etc. quickly. I would have to have a big sink! If I could afford it I would have a decent sized fridge for flowers/etc. I think I would have a main desk where I keep my illustration supplies, computer and tablet. This would be either by or near where I’d keep my inspirational images. There would be a dressing table with makeup supplies and a wardrobe with costume. There would overall be lots of storage space to put various supplies in.

Ideally, I would like to have access to a lot of things to grow as an artist. That’s why I can’t suggest a specific thing.
