Artist Studios (presentation)

After going through the slide show, it is clear that artists need to feel really comfortable and at ease in their work spaces to create the best work and to work most efficiently. The artwork itself sometimes reflects the work space and in turn the personality in a way. Some artists need to spread out and just be able to start and stop where they please. Some artists make a mess and don't worry about cleaning up, they just keep working. Other artists need to have everything neat and organized so they know exactly where everything is when they need it. The common theme among the different studios, though, is the need for the artist to have inspirational objects, a sketchbook or camera as a way of documenting certain images, and other art pieces they have done. It seems that the artists studio is as important to the creation of the art as the medium itself. I would agree with this statement and say that without a comfortable space to work in and familiar and inspirational objects or images to help inspire (for lack of better word).
