Corner View: Favorite Hangout








I don't really have time to hang out in coffee shops anymore (I wish I did). But I do try to make it to this restaurant just about every week to hang out with out with our good friends, but I didn't really want to blog about
that (maybe later).
So after considering this week's theme, I realized some of my favorite places to hang out are artist's studios!
I love looking at their work, but I also immensely enjoy looking at their materials, their tools, their books and papers shelved and strewn about and the photographs that they choose to tack up on their walls.
I relish taking a glimpse of their process, their minds and what inspires them.
Someday I'd love to publish a book of photographs of artist's studios.
The above images are all from Aaron's studio. You can see some images here, here, and here of photographs of artist's studios that I have taken in the past.

    Nice pictures of studios and artist work. How nice to see into the work and hobbies of other people. These kind of studios inspire my non-artistic self to try my hand at new things - not usually very successfully though!

    Surrounded by paint, paper, brushes... yes, it makes an artist feel right at home. A best hang out for inspiration and good conversation :^)
