Curios a go-go From medieval helmets and armour to skulls and art supplies, this illustrator’s studio is a collection of oddities that delight the imagination.

Sam Flegal

I’ve been a working illustrator for almost 10 years. During this time, my studio was a room that lacked functionality and design, consisting of old furniture and insufficient storage space. So in 2018, I decided to remodel my studio. I wanted a space that truly reflected my needs as a professional artist and showcased the things that inspired me.

The first step was putting in a laminate wood floor. I had beige carpet in my old studio and it was a nightmare. Guess what? It’s really difficult to remove black ink from a beige carpet! As an artist, you must accept the fact that you’re going to spill things on the floor, so make sure that you have a surface which can handle the mess.
