get painted !!! - where my Art lives Internationally



Do you have a dedicated studio/artistic space? Yes.






Where is it located? between my kitchen and breakfast room and adjacent to my loungeroom..













Is it a large or small space? Comfortable..though my easel takes up half the space !!
What medium(s) do you work in? big canvases...oil...acrylic...goauche and graphite
Do you have a separate area for each? No ...my computer desk doubles as my table for my paints...that's when it can get pretty messy...eek !!
What one word would you use to describe your studio? different?
What do you think is the best feature of your studio? my easel and my computer and the special daylight lighting for when the weather is dull...
What would you change if you could? nothing really..
Can you share an organisational tip? always work with a drop sheet...oil paint and carpet don't mix ..
Describe the usual state of your work table? pretty tidy most days...although it can get out of hand if I'm painting continuously..
Does your work table face out into the room or toward the wall? see pic
What’s one drawback of your studio/artistic space? the floor...thank goodness I'm not a messy painter..
Do you have an idea wall or inspiration board? no everything is in my head or on my computer...










Do you listen to music in your studio? Yes....yes..yes...
recently Jack Johnson.....Andre Rieu...Spa Reflections..
Do you display your own work in your studio? Yes....the sketch above my computer desk is a study for one of my Kurri Murals...
I also have my Son's Artwork on display



















Other artists’ work? Lisa Lorenz (colourful colourful paintings) and Diane's Book (which I'm scared to put anything in)



What’s one quirk or unusual feature of your studio? my back scratcher (an old salad server)...frozen shoulder and all that!!






Whose studio space would you like to read about? I would like to tag the following artists to reveal their studio spaces….

All of the artists on my 101 Top Artist's Blogs List !!!!

#10 'Beyond the Visible Terrain© Scatterlings©'
Scatterlings© is a collection of self-directed enchantment art which
combines actual foliage with watercolor and color pencil mediums.
Hidden among the actual and rendered foliage are an enchanted
assortment of ‘Scatterlings’©; mythical animals and fairies. Each
original piece is copyrighted.
Jacquelyn Berl
@ Ascender Rises Above
Mixed Media; Pressed Foliage, Watercolor, Colored Pencil, Pen
and Ink on Handmade Paper. Forming ’something’ out of ‘the nothing’
often overlooked in everyday life, these one-of-a-kind folk art pieces
take up to a year to complete as flowers and leaves are collected,
pressed, preserved and finally hidden within a vision that evolves
continually.
31"W x 21H (40" W x 28 " H including matt and frame)
Although preserved in the same manner as a piece of handmade paper.
Within the larger pieces packets of silica gel are placed between the
original and the frame to absorb humidity. Though framed, each piece
continues to be fragile and must be handled with extra care. As with
most pieces of fine art; the original should not be placed in a window
or beneath bright light.
PRICE $4,000 + shipping and handling
