Studio Shots - Tuesday -- Week of June 2, 2009

Welcome to Studio Shots - Tuesday. I love visiting people's studios through photographs, and think other people would enjoy it also. Each week people can write a post on their blog with one or more photos of their studio, then add the post link to the comments on Studio Shots - Tuesday blog post for that week. Anyone can participate whenever they like. There is no obligation to participate each week. With enough interest, there should be blogs to visit each week and we can get a little glimpse into where and how people work.

General photos of studio, tools and materials, work-in-progress, inspiration, storage, things on floor, wall shots, studio guests, studio pets, are suggestions for photos that can be included. The only restriction is that this is not a showcase for finished work, although finished work may appear in a general studio photo. If there is interest, we can have specific topics for some weeks. (Maybe twice a month.)

If you would like to participate this week, please write a post on your blog with studio photos and then put a link to that specific post url (not a general blog url) in the comments for this week. Because this is the first week, I am posting a little early and this week's comments will run until Monday, June 8. The next post will be Tuesday, June 9, and will run until the next Monday.


Glimpse of my messy studio (It's not always like this, but tends to move quickly back to this state after I straighten it up.) - rolls of mohair sitting on fabric tote bag project, trays of small fabric pieces for fabric collage all sitting on my cutting table.

Each week, I can post a preview version of one of someone's photos with a link to their post. This will highlight a person each week and give the Studio Shots - Tuesday blog some visual interest.

There will be a blogroll of people's blogs who participate. Also, if people have suggestions of books to add to the sidebar, please contact me.

If you have suggestions for topics, please let me know.

  1. Hi! Looks like fun, but, seriously, you call that messy?? Me, I'm wondering how I will clear enough space to back up far enough to take a snapshot of the mess. *Grin*

    Looking forward to seeing what the 'maiden voyage' brings!
    Cheers,
    pete S.

  2. It looks like mine will be the first post with a link to a studio, since Pete's comment is a not even thinly veiled cop-out! :-) Come on, Pete, we want to see your studio.

    Mine may be seen at:

  5. Great new blog! I LOVE to see people's studios... hoping you get lots of participation. By the way, the banner looks good in Firefox. I like the simplicity of your design here -- showcasing the guest's photos. :)
