The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
That doesn't reinforce any of my negative stereotypes of life in Puerto Rico!
here's my computer desk. I do most of drawing here, and there's a pile of linoleum shavings next to the keyboard from the linocut I'm working on.
here's my work table, that's a piece of MDF board with a cork backing on top. Behind it is a large sheet of chipboard I put on it when I'm cutting.
My printers, a Canon MP830 all-in-one and a Canon i9900 large format which I absolutely love.
here's my work area in my bedroom. the clothesline is up to hang prints as they dry, but I've been printing in the studio at the university lately so there's nothing up there. Unfortunately my bedroom has the enticing smell of oil paint, mineral spirits, and printmaking ink to it because of it.
Man, there's so much info in a casual photograph.
Manon, you wear Old Spice deodorant, you like comfortable footwear when you draw, you're accident prone, prefer Coke over Pepsi, have children, and like classic rock.
MT, what is that magical green box on the right side of your desk?
That was an oven I had to build for a presentation at work. I made it out of cardboard and covered it with 12 x 18 paper. I never actually got to take pictures of the finished oven... but I'll post some of it in its near final stages later. My desk is never that messy, it was just that one time because I had a lot of people comming over and dropping things off. Usually, it's very organized... I can't work in messes.
This was my workspace at my last office job when I was an intern.
My current workspace is split it half, I have my drawing desk and laptop in my room, and my desktop and normal desk in the living area, I don't have any pictures of it at the moment though.
edit: Long that cabin is pretty awesome, has a bit of that rustic modern look to it. Apart from the bare particle board and the floor spaces you had to caulk it looks pretty sweet.
Drawing board and pile newsprint drawings from the past year. Conveniently placed right next to the door for when I go to class, and to trip anyone who tries walking into my apartment for the first time.
Computer table. Wireless internet and peripherals are for pussies.
Drawing horse with my slick cobbled together lamp (reflector shop light from Home Depot combined with a microphone stand), gouache palette, TV and my oil stuff in the corner there.
As you can probably guess from the way the top shelves are bowing in the center, I could use some bigger bookshelves.
Drawing desk. Rarely used because it's too far away from my tv or computer- the precise qualities that would make it a good place to draw if I could bring myself to sit down in front of it more often.
I've got a lot of 9x12 masonite panels to burn through at some point.
I do like the keyboard it sent me, because my last two modern keyboards broke because they were flimsy pieces of shit. This thing is a heavy, loud-typing monster that could survive a nuclear blast and could then still be used to beat down the resulting mutant hordes with.
Yessir. Well, it's one of the Unicomp ones and not an original IBM, but it's the same thing apart from the different logo and the addition of Windows keys.
See MT? This thing is a classic, known by people that know good things when they see them. Just ask Bombsy, I'm pretty sure he's got one as well.

mars you are a cunt
Also, is that wacom tablet on the little roll out slab the keyboard normally goes on? That's a pretty boss set up because of that.
Where's your workspace huh?
Two years ago I didn't even draw but was just as messy:
ok that is enough photos from me
yep it's my wacom
and after I get the new one, I won't need that mouse either
flit, my dad has that chair and it is terrible
is it terrible for you too?
Technically I'm homeless, so all you get is a picture of where I'm currently working.
And if it were daytime, you'd get a better view outside the window.
It sucks balls
I sold it and picked up the cheap one that you see in the new picture
Patent pending.
here's the full thing with my pc on the left, which is what i use for games... when i have time for games (never):
and here's the tiny little space where i put my laptop when i work:
you can barely see the space amongst the garbage
note the bottle of ibuprofen which is always at hand for dealing with asshole client-induced headaches
But it 'IS' daytime
she usually works from the couch
it's being occupied right now by sports idiots.
Cameras up top: Hasselbad 500CM, Yashica Lynx 5000e, Pentax 67, Agfa Isolette I and a Holga above.
I've got my shotgun in its case on the bottom right.
That's a flatbed film scanner above my laptop and there are a pair of external hard drives just kind of floating in the shelves.
A bunch of exposed film sitting to my right between the laptop and the typewriter.
This one is for perspective. I live in a tiny cabin in Homer, AK.

I already posted this on a previous thread, but... I'm sure everyone is curious as to what my life is like... and when I say everyone I mean no one.
That cutting mat is huge, I love it to death. That's where I make all my boxes.

or a manlier ez-bake?
In Puerto Rico all ovens are made from cardboard.

I'll post some pics once I get batteries for my camera (stupid piece of shit with no internal rechargeable battery.)

I'd like to have a workspace like that one day.
lab bench to my right
lab bench to my left
looking out of my space
I'd take photos of the mice but I'm not legally allowed to
