New studio setting
During next year I have art project that includes large paintings. I do have small study in our apartment, but there is not enough space for larger canvases. Luckily I could rent small apartment from the opposite house.
The wall behind easel and the floor are covered with plastic. Airbrushing spreads small paint particles and this way I will keep walls clean. I do have a small table top easel, but for larger canvases I need this new huge easel system. Now I can paint works that are more than 2 meters wide. Height of the easel shelf can be adjusted. In the picture the shelf of the other part is sill not in its place. Small table with wheels on it will be useful when painting larger works. There is enough space for several tables. Painting table is made of old kitchen cabinets and old table. Big brown box is compressor that makes pressured air for airbrushes.
There are several large wardrobes where I can keep canvases, papers and other stuff. Lights are all daylight fluorescents that provide good light that shows true colours.
Book shelf provides books to read while waiting for painting to dry or when searching inspiration. This apartment also has a large balcony where I can read or scetch new paintings.
Right now I am working with Finnish Owls painting series. I will paint all ten species that breed here. These paintings are half way done. Backgrounds and light and shadows are still missing.
