Explore the studios setups of some of the world’s best artists.
- My easel that I’ve had for over 20 years. I got it right when I was graduating from Laguna College of Art and Design. I love that it’s covered in paint from almost everything I’ve ever made.
- While I don’t really think about my brushes a lot, they are extremely important to me, I couldn’t do anything without them. So by default I think I need to include them.
- The iced coffee on my desk is definitely a favorite. Any time you come into my studio there will either be a black hot coffee in the morning or an iced coffee with milk in the afternoon. It’s my all day fuel for painting.
- My cameras on the shelf above my desk on the left. I love collecting cameras, and I use them constantly for my work whether it’s photoshoots or making content for social media. I grew to really love photography from my dad, and it plays a big role in capturing great images with the models I paint.
- On the top left you’ll see paintings I made of my son and my dad. Two of my favorite people on the planet, and it’s nice to have them with me in the studio.
