My workspace 01/09

Not much really happening lately… starting work on the cover for Festering Romance, inking, etc etc… So, this week, I’ve prepared a diagram of my workspace in case anyone is interested:

1. Droopy ol’ desk lamp + clip fan
2. Framed artwork by Coleman Engle
3. Tiny cheapo cat calendar
4. Electric eraser hanging from clip attached to desktop + dirty ink rag
5. Trusty 11″x17″ lightbox
6. Spin-o-tray (taped to desktop) containing brushes, pens, erasers… whatever
7. Mini T-square in desk-side stuff slot
8. Electric pencil sharpener
9. Dust brush + 12″ cork-backed metal ruler + cutting mat (also taped to desk)
10. Diluted Windsor Newton ink in film canister w/ ink splatter sheets
11. Koh-i-noor Rapidographs in “Humidifying Revolving Selector” & a bunch of french curves behind it on the table
12. Drawer full of templates (tons of ellipses, circles, squares)
13. Tons of cords + surge protector
14. Footstool (I have a tall chair)
15. Ink bottles, nibs, eyedropper
16. Little containers of FW white ink & white Acrylagouache

Usually I have my lightbox off the table, but right now I’m preparing to lightbox through the back of some of my pencils to weed out problems in the art before I ink. If you see anything else that you have no idea what it is, feel free to ask!

Hope you enjoyed looking at my workspace, and check back on Monday for more artwork from Festering Romance!
