Creatively engaged From illustrating to studying, every aspect of this artist’s studio is designed for a smooth flow of work.
I’ve got a 120-square foot corner of a larger office space, and I love it here. It’s located about 15 minutes from my house, in downtown Provo, Utah, which gives me just enough time to decompress during my commute.
I designed my workspace for focus and productivity. For example, when I’m illustrating I don’t want to be distracted by emails or Twitter, so I’ve put my computer on the opposite side of my drawing desk.
In keeping with the theme of focus I’ve divided the space into three sections. The first is my computer station. Here I have an oldish (2012) iMac and an even older (2007) Wacom Cintiq that’s running Adobe CS6 software and my favourite program for making comics: Clip Studio Paint.
