Here's my newly rearranged and painted studio. Now my endless pile of found materials is filed and organized in lockers and bins and such. Time to mess it up again and start a new project...



Just as with materials, part of my practice as an artist is making use of "dead" or "wasted" space. Some call this re-purposing, others just think I'm a little odd. This loft in my studio is one example of that. First it was a ledge for storage, then I added a ladder and railing, then a floor, then a chair, then a sort of wall, then a bookshelf, then a hammock, now it is the upperworld in my studio, an escape from the craziness of down below.
