One of the things that you want to make sure that you do, when you do get your area. Whether
it's a studio, or a corner of the living room, or wherever it happens to be. You want to
set yourself up for success, and by that I mean, if you're going to use colored pencils,
you want to have those. You want to have them handy. You want to make sure they're nice
and sharp. They're ready to use, and you want to have them within a nice, easy distance,
for you to get. The same with your watercolor crayons, anything like this. My studio is
small, but it's a decent size, to where I've got a lot of little places where I can put
things, but I know where everything is, and when I need a particular color, or I need
a particular item, I can go right to it, and I can continue on with my painting. If I had
to search the whole house through for one brush, or something like that, it wouldn't
be very productive for me, so have all your brushes. If you use different sizes, you can
have them all lined up, and in a cup somewhere, right where you can reach them. You can have
your pencils in a good spot, and your dishes of color, anything that you want to do, so
just set yourself up for success. Have a good supply of paper, and a good supply of paints,
and pencils, and you'll be ready to go.
