      Welll... my workspace is just a mess 😃 I always put it in order from time to time and while saying to myself "from now on, it will be like this! I will not allow to turn in to mess again!" ...and after 3 days...

      You could play "find waldo" with my desk 😃 But to make it easier... I use intuos 3 for digital work, I almost bought a Cintiq, but I realized I dont really mind the disconnection... I use polychromatic colored pencils for sketching... and oils and pastels when I want to do something bigger on my easel. I am big Mignola fan, hence the Hellboy. Miniature statues are serious danger for my wallet 🙂 ...and yeah... I wouldnt survive without ice cream these scorching days..

        This is the setup I built in our new place. I wanted a workspace that felt like it was tucked into the wall so added cupboards either side. I recycled the weathered old fence palings when we re-did the fence.

                    My work space is just in a tiny corner of my bedroom. So it's a perfect location for when I want to take an afternoon nap ... or two.

                          Here's my new backyard studio! I'm remodeling the main house too. I'm about 85% finished.

                            Okay what is the deal. I see all these immaculate spaces. Where are all the messy artists. You know the ones with paint spray on the walls, ink and oil spills, and books everywhere? That is what my space looks like right now although we are soon moving into our new home with a dedicated studio space. @Lee-White what a beautiful craftsman home you have.

                              So cool to see where everyone works! I LOVE your back yard spot @Lee-White .

                              Over the years I've been set up in the garage, at the kitchen table, in a leaky and flood prone basement, and my bedroom. It's amazing what a project and a set of headphones can do to keep you in the zone, despite your work space's shortcomings.

                              Here's where I drew my two Missile Mouse graphic novels. It was the only spot in our tiny house that I could fit a drawing desk, archives, and books. I used a cardboard box for book ends, haha. Oh, and my computer is upstairs in the bedroom.

                              And here's my spot now. I ran out of book shelf space, so I have books organized on the floor. If I ever get a week off between projects I'll build out a better shelf system.

                                  Thanks jake! Here's what it looked like when I bought the house. My current studio was a nasty old shed with a barn style roofline. The house looked terrible too.

                                      @Jiří-Kůs super dark. But I wasn't painting, just drawing and inking.

                                          Super messy studio. Painting, inking, color pencils, markers etc... along with my little Surface Pro 2.
