My Art Studio Setup

If you’ve ever wondered what my art studio looks like behind the scenes, here’s a quick, 2-minute tour.

This studio didn’t happen overnight. Over the years, my workspace has lived in a spare bedroom, then moved through a few “almost there” studio spaces around the house—each one a step closer to what I’d always pictured.

My current studio is the result of a lot of trial, adjustment, and learning what actually supports my painting process, including a lot of natural light.

In the video below, I walk you through my setup—my easels, palette, lighting, storage, and the tools I use every day in the studio. If you’re working in a small space now, I hope this shows you what’s possible over time. And maybe gives you a few ideas you can adapt right where you are.

If you've got questions about art supplies or my studio setup, be sure to leave those below the video.
