KIM S JOY STAINED GLASS AND JEWE​LRY

Blogging with glass

Where do I create?

I am blessed to have two studios. One at my home and one at Art Happens on Tarboro.

My home studio is in the largest bedroom. When I moved into my house I wanted a studio to work in so I set up my jewelry and mixed media studio in the bedroom. I thought I was going to convert the garage into my stained glass studio. It has a wood floor, no electricity, no heat or ac- yes all that can be upgraded. I ended up buying the storefront on Tarboro Street in Historic Downtown Wilson- there I have my stained glass and teaching studio as well as a gallery of local artists. Both studios are my happy place! 
​
Above are photos of my home studio, just finished cleaning it. It normally looks lived in and worked in!
My workbench at Art Happens on Tarboro and some gallery photos.

I love have places to work, when I am home I can create any time of the day or night and when I am Downtown I have a huge space to work and share art with visitors.

I started out in a 5' x 8' potting shed attached to the back of a garage with no electricity, just an extension cord. Now I am in a 1900 sq ft studio! Came a long way but it took many many years.

What does you work space look like? What do you call it? Studio? Workspace? Tell me about it and share photos if you like.

Happy Creating! And have an artful weekend!
