Creative space We take a tour of this beautiful bespoke workplace, where function is key

My studio is 100 feet from my house in Northern California, in a building that was converted from a three-car garage by my brother-in-law and me back in 1989-1990. We had moved into the house one day before our daughter Victoria was born in 1986.

My wife Lynn and I wanted to move to a more rural environment from San Francisco, where I began my career. I wanted a studio at home, where I could focus on my work, but be away from the studio when I was in the house with my family. To save money, much of the building material was scavenged from a local medical building that was being remodelled.

The four sides of the studio are laid out according to four functions: light, research, storage and production.

The front of the building is a wall of large windows (facing north). One side is dedicated to reference, photography, props, etc. The back wall is designated for storage (primarily of work in progress), and the other wall is the 'production' side - the part of the studio where I do almost all my painting and drawing.
