I love your studio. It is so bright and inviting.I must admit I am jealous but you deserve it. I am glad you took us on your journey to it's completion.
Your studio is fabulous Sharon and I'm not going to mention your art supplies (I am so jealous!). I really love your videos, you make me laugh so much, in a good way. Your story at the has to be your best yet. Thanks again for sharing, keep safe. 😁🎨
Congratulations to you and your new studio, love your tour just like a kind of art equipment Museums, full of delicious goodies. Wish your finger healing fast and you have long, wonderful, creative time to come. Thank you 😊😇🙏🏻🌹!
Love your studio! It’s so inviting and a wonderful place to get lost in your artwork. It definitely puts an awesome smile on your beautiful face, young lady. Thank you for showing us around. Fran
What a beautiful bright happy studio! I love love your rugs! You have so many interesting supplies. Thoroughly enjoyed this video and will be watching it again. There’s so much information! Thank you for sharing it all with us
Thanks so much Lindsay. I have been buying on Amazon and the smaller ones for 8x10 or 9x12 cuts are by Golden State Art. Nice thick mats, with back boards and clear bags. smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0077EAOSU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and then my 12x16 for 11x14 cut mats are here smile.amazon.com/Golden-State-Art-Picture-Backing/dp/B01CTAEB7Q/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=Precut+mat+12+x+16+for+11x14&qid=1594514707&sr=8-3 I can’t remember where I got my 16x20 cut mats at. I should’ve wrote that down because I like painting this size and I can’t remember where I bought them.
🤭😂😂like going into your own store! Even more fun when you come across something you’ve been looking for, or, better yet, coming across something you forgot you even had! When that happens to me, it inspires me to get more creative. Lovely art studio/get-away corner in the midst of your fantastically beautiful property. Love the meditation chair on the verandah. It’s beautiful, Sharon; your & your honey’s lifetimes of hard work is paying off. Thanks for the peek!
Thank you so much. Yeah when I think back to when we bought the property we were in our 20’s. Now 35 or so years later we are actually living here. I see my kids more than I did when we lived right nearby each other! And our best friends live here too. It is great.
Loved your Art Studio...so tranquil and beautiful. Did you paint your stamps? I have a few stamps that I might paint as well. Thank you for sharing your space and the ideas from watching. Appreciated
An excellent tour, Sharon - so pleased to see you getting settled in the artistic retreat that you so fully deserve. I don't know if you ever watched Dr Who, but your studio puts me in mind of the Tardis which looks normal-sized from the outside but is gigantic and contains so much once you enter. Incidentally, I was sorry to hear about Tom's passing (and the sad circumstances of it). I remember him sending you that red fountain pen - and he & I had exchanged a couple of comments on your RUclips page a few years ago. I think he also posted a few items in the Instagram group, again a few years ago. On a happier note it was good to see Diesel behaving himself on the back of the settee (even if his glare seemed to suggest he wasn't feeling like the happiest bunny in the world today LOL). Anyway, thanks for the tour, it was worth waiting for. All the best, Brian.
Thank you Zoe. It is Heaven to me. We bought the property about 31 years ago and built the house about 28-29 years ago. It was drywalled and plumbed and livable as a cottage but the intention when we were 30 was to one day live here. Then putting our kids through private school it was just never the right time to finish it. Until the year before Pat retired. We could finally pay off all of our debt, and move here, and we have been finishing it over the last 2 years. As well as adding on to our barn, building my studio etc. So much work. But we knew it was our forever home.
I'd love to know how you feel every time you walk into your studio... I think I would feel utter JOY having such a beautiful light filled space like that ALL to myself. The only art I'm interested in doing is watercolours and sketching and I feel that I have SOOOO many supplies, though it's a mere fraction of what you have and I often wonder will I live long enough to get through all my paints and get to use all my palettes and brushes and paper (though I'm doing my best to get through my 3+ years old paper as quickly as possible for fear of the sizing going off), sometimes I get a bit overwhelmed by thought of it all... I can't help thinking how lovely it must be to have some of your creative friends over for an art session or even just a coffee and chat... Cheers and many thanks for sharing with us...
Magdalena French Well, first, your paper should never go bad. It is archival. So don’t worry about that. I am new to the area here, and I am still getting to know people. It can be difficult being the new guy. But I am sure over time I will have art friends over. I am still planning on getting the plein air club going but they have just closed down our state again due to covid. I have too much stuff! No doubt. Most of it is due to having the RUclips channel.but my niece is an elementary school teacher and I give her stuff for her 3rd grade class all the time.
I love it. You are so deserving of this wonderful space. What a spacious studio to chill and create. Looking forward to all of your videos. I have the same little vials and got my ink samples from Goulet Pens.
What a fantastic art studio. I love it. I think I would only be always on the edge thinking if someone is watching me from outside😂 I am like this even at home when my curtain is wide open and its night time. However I would love to have this space. And I am so glad to see that you were a card maker too. I have now transitioned to painting and feel so guilty about not crafting anymore and I have so many stamps. But I believe it is okay to experiment and to grow and to change... enjoy your space:)
Thank you for the tour of your well stocked & beautiful studio. I think it was a good idea to get a finger splint. Flexion muscles stronger than extension ones, if I recall correctly. Jeanne (retired RN)
WOW!!! What an awesome studio!!! I would LOVE working in there. You are truly fortunate. What did you do to your finger? Are you right handed? Haven't been a subbie for long and will certainly have to watch more videos. Thanks for sharing your beautiful space!!!! Best of luck with your finger issue!!
Back one video shows what I did. The DIY Create sign video. But the video I just posted today gives the update and possible surgery. On my way to see a hand surgeon right now. No I am a leftie which is why I cut my right hand. And thank you. I love the studio. It turned out to be more than Ihad ever thought possible. My husband got carried away! 😜
OMG you have everything!! Is there anything you don't have?? Compared to you I have nothing, oh well. Keep telling us about supplies, it is hard to decide what to buy when you are a senior on a limited income. So much new stuff available since I was in art school. I enjoyed the studio tour,
Such a beautiful studio and setting. I love how bright it is and the views out the windows. Thank you for the tour, I enjoyed watching. I would say that your lucky but I'm sure it was well earned. :)
Sharon, what a beautiful studio. My family would have to make me leave that space. I could just live in there. A bathroom & I'd be set. LOL I also have a lab coat I use as a smock. I am very messy when I create. I try to be careful, but I always get something on my clothes if I do not protect them. And sometimes even then. Hehe. So strange, but I'm having the same problem on my knee. It just keeps opening back up. I'm not going back either. If I can help it. But today I can finally walk without a cane or crutch. Yay. Pain seems much better. Hope your finger heals fast. Good luck. TYFS
Yeah it can be hard leaving some days! What did you do to your knee? My finger is in a splint for 6-8 weeks. Then if it hasn’t healed I may need surgery. I had cut a chunk of bone off with the tendon. Go figure. Oh well could be worse..
Sharon, this space is so beautiful; you are a lucky woman and well deserving. Can you recommend a good quality gouache paint. The gouache I have has awful colors and hard to mix; also what is the best permanent ink for fountain pens. Do Lamy Safari come with waterproof cartridges? Thanks for your help.
Ok... Lami Safari pens, you have to buy your empty converter for the pen. Make sure you get one to fit Lami. Some pens come with converters. Some come with cartridges which are profiled meant for one use and throw away although they can be refilled with a syringe. Cartridge ink is usually not waterproof. My favorite ink for cheap pens like lami etc, I like Platinum Carbon. Don’t use this in expensive pens because carbon can build up and clog pens. I have never had a problem with this. If they are left sitting I just take them apart and soak in warm water and they are fine again. I also use Noodlers Bulletproof ink but it takes longer to dry. And the sizing in the paper can make your ink take longer or dry faster. It is just a trial and error thing. Gouache... My favorite gouache is M. Graham but they have limited color selection so I also buy some Winsor and Newton colors. I love the Linden green! But watch Winsor and Newton for lightfastness. Someone told me recently that they have changed some. IDK if I believe that though. Also Holbein is terrific. There are other brands, European that are imported and therefore more expensive.
Stephanie Alex too deep. I will do a follow up on it. It is just a preference. It isn’t difficult to use, but if it was a half inch shallower I would’ve preferred it.
Sharon Cullen Art thanks! I’ve been obsessed with them, in fact mine is coming Tuesday, i’ve seen a bunch of videos and the majority prefer the larger so the brushes fit in better. Guess I’ll see. Thanks again for the tour!
Oh my gosh I get it! In my old studio I showed a look at what I needed to clean up. If you go back and find it from 2-3 years ago you’ll feel better! 🤭🤣😂
Holy cow you got stuff! Beautiful studio... nice hammertoe :) and no bathroom? I would need one had two surgeries one a colon resection and gall bladder removed... when it is time is no waiting. I am a collector in the last couple of years.. every video I watch I want to buy it all you name it oils, acrylics, watercolor but my biggist binge are BRUSHES or how I love to buy brushes... thanks for the tour and hope your finger heals soon.
Hammertoe? I think that must be something else! Hahaha. No bathroom. Didn’t need it. I am about 50 steps at most to get to it. And to put one in makes it a taxable livable dwelling. I am done paying for multiple homes!
You had me cracking up when you said “this ugly painting is going to my girlfriend, she said she wanted it” just a few days ago my girlfriend picked up one of my ugly paintings and wanted it... I was shocked 😳 but I said ok... it saved me from sanding it down and redoing it.
Check out my recent watercolors video. I believe it is titled “Which watercolors should I use or buy” or something like that. I didn’t show them all but many of them I did.
Hello Sharon - would you give me a recommendation on what to buy on the pan drum. I went on line and there are so many - I have no idea which one to chose. I am beginner and didn't know about these until I saw you demonstrate it. I only play simple piano songs and just for my pleasure. Thank you so much. I enjoy your videos.
Oh gosh. Well I’m not super happy with the one I have. I really want a Rav Vast or darn I can’t think of the other name right now. Then you have to choose your key. I have d minor Celtic and another on C. But I want to play with my fingers, not the mallets. Don’t jump into it. You really need to do your research. Listen to the different keys. See what sound you’re going for. Listen to tongue drum videos there’s a lot of good information. I took months researching and wish I could’ve afforded the $700 one I wanted.
Thanks. Several of you have reminded me. I wasn’t sure and thought of them but then thought, nope that’s not it! Ha! I will try to do a pastel piece soon.
'Love the bentwood rocker! You never see them anymore. The Mid-Century Modern piece is cool, too, but nothing is as beautiful as your art. What I wouldn't give for a note on your cards!
Both. The concrete pour and shell were done professionally. I designed it. And my husband, a friend, brother in law finished it. It is 18’x24’ with a 4 foot porch.
Mixing waterproof ink in water for an ink wash painting, it doesn’t mix well because it is waterproof. Did that make sense? I am talking about mixing water into inks in those shot glasses.
@18:11, take everything out of the leather watercolor pouch and soak it in water for a day or two and see if that doesn't help with the stiffness. Great tour, thank you & God bless
I always thought once leather dries if in contact with water it would harden. But I’m not using it so it wouldn’t hurt to try. Maybe I will talk to a leather man too.
It is 18x24 or 432 sq ft. Then I have storage in the loft areas on either side. I don’t know that square footage but the loft behind me is big enough that I plan to have furniture or a chair anyway up there so I can sit to look at my knitting books and decide on projects. My rolling ladder is being built right now. It is going to take up space on one side of the room but I’m looking forward to getting into my yarn and knitting again!. And welcome to the family! Thanks for subscribing.
Yeah it was too expensive for me too! Ha! But I am so happy that we had the money to do it. It is a pretty large space. It could be done much smaller for a lot less money. This was just under $40,000 to build i believe. But a ready made shed would work too. We saved a long time on our retirement. About 40 years so we were fortunate to be able to do it.
It's a beautiful studio. I love the branch hanging with the plants. The video is kind of dizzying. It would have been better if you sounded more excited about the studio.
Vintaj is a machine that embossed. I originally got it to emboss metal for jewelry. But then used it also for card making. Here is a link to a video on it. ruclips.net/video/mE007gurPjA/видео.html
Love your studio idea. But you have so many art supplies that if you were to work day and night for the rest of your life. You would never use them all. Note: when it comes to colored pencils. You never have too many.
I agree and in recent videos I speak about this. I am now in a rural area and I’m not sure where to go, but I am going to talk to a local gallery to see if they know of someone.
No bathroom. My bathroom is in my house about 25 yards away. Putting a bathroom in there would make it another livable dwelling and then I pay taxes on it as I would on my house. We have water that will run 3 seasons. Then in the winter I will take a jug of water for filling my rinse jars etc. Not a big deal for me. I love it.
I love your studio. It is so bright and inviting.I must admit I am jealous but you deserve it. I am glad you took us on your journey to it's completion.
My husband treats me so well. I had no idea it would be this big or look so amazing. But I am very blessed.
Your studio is amazing! I love it! The place it's spetacular, the view, the space, so warm and kind. Lovely place.
It really is! Thank you. I’m very blessed to have it.

Thank you Laurie. ☺️I’m thoroughly enjoying it!
Sharon, this studio is beautiful! So much light:) what mats do you buy, I am very lazy about mat cutting and considering buying precuts.
Thanks so much Lindsay. I have been buying on Amazon and the smaller ones for 8x10 or 9x12 cuts are by Golden State Art.

n am oozing with jealousy over your studio...the space, u’r so lucky 😩 !!! I’m also envious of your work ☹️😁😁
.thank you. I am sure blessed to have a work space like this.
Loved your Art Studio...so tranquil and beautiful.
Did you paint your stamps?
I have a few stamps that I might paint as well. Thank you for sharing your space and the ideas from watching. Appreciated
I love the skylights! What a lovely, inviting studio. Such a pretty location too.
Thank you so much
Beautiful studio, so light and airy 🤩
Your studio looks great Sharon! I hope your finger gets better quickly!
Thanks. I think I’ll live!
Dream studio. Looks great.
Thanks so much.
An excellent tour, Sharon - so pleased to see you getting settled in the artistic retreat that you so fully deserve. I don't know if you ever watched Dr Who, but your studio puts me in mind of the Tardis which looks normal-sized from the outside but is gigantic and contains so much once you enter. Incidentally, I was sorry to hear about Tom's passing (and the sad circumstances of it). I remember him sending you that red fountain pen - and he & I had exchanged a couple of comments on your RUclips page a few years ago. I think he also posted a few items in the Instagram group, again a few years ago. On a happier note it was good to see Diesel behaving himself on the back of the settee (even if his glare seemed to suggest he wasn't feeling like the happiest bunny in the world today LOL). Anyway, thanks for the tour, it was worth waiting for. All the best, Brian.
Thanks Brian. Yeah it was a tragic thing when he passed. It has been almost a year now I think.
Looks great Sharon.I'm happy for you.
Thanks Maria.
That is an amazing art studio, wow! And that location would be heaven to paint in. so jealous. hehe. Fab video!
Thank you Zoe. It is Heaven to me. We bought the property about 31 years ago and built the house about 28-29 years ago. It was drywalled and plumbed and livable as a cottage but the intention when we were 30 was to one day live here. Then putting our kids through private school it was just never the right time to finish it. Until the year before Pat retired. We could finally pay off all of our debt, and move here, and we have been finishing it over the last 2 years. As well as adding on to our barn, building my studio etc. So much work. But we knew it was our forever home.

Magdalena French Well, first, your paper should never go bad. It is archival. So don’t worry about that. I am new to the area here, and I am still getting to know people. It can be difficult being the new guy. But I am sure over time I will have art friends over. I am still planning on getting the plein air club going but they have just closed down our state again due to covid. I have too much stuff! No doubt. Most of it is due to having the RUclips channel.but my niece is an elementary school teacher and I give her stuff for her 3rd grade class all the time.
Magdalena French enjoy your paints and paper and palettes and let God take care of the time. That’s what I tell myself when I think of my age.
I love it. You are so deserving of this wonderful space. What a spacious studio to chill and create. Looking forward to all of your videos. I have the same little vials and got my ink samples from Goulet Pens.
Maybe that is where I got them. I couldn’t remember. But I have bought rom them as well so that is probably where they came from.
WOW! I would never leave!! Really awesome
Except I had to leave when we got to -15f My heater couldn’t keep up.
You have an amazing art studio. I'm feeling all kinds of envy. :) I look forward to seeing you create future art there.
What a great workspace... and in such a beautiful surrounding! Thank you for the tour!

Absolutely, we need to keep growing. I’m not afraid of being watched here. Unless it is by wild animals!
Thank you for the tour of your well stocked & beautiful studio. I think it was a good idea to get a finger splint. Flexion muscles stronger than extension ones, if I recall correctly.
Jeanne (retired RN)
Yep. I have about a 1/8 inch gap and the wound is slowly granulating but it is frustrating!
Absolutely beautiful! Y’all did a fabulous job from beginning to end!
Thank you I will pass your compliments on to the 4 hard working guys who finished it.
WOW!!! What an awesome studio!!! I would LOVE working in there. You are truly fortunate. What did you do to your finger? Are you right handed?

I have accumulated so much over about 8 years. Some I have had for 20 years or more. But I will.
Loved the tour, so jealous of your beautiful space. Where did you get those tea boxes for your watercolor tubes? Love them.
You can get tea boxes on Amazon.
I love your rugs! Wow so cool!
Beautiful Art Studio ! Thanks for sharing, take care !

Thank you. Hope your fingers heal soon..
You have so many interests and skills..very inspiring:)
Thank you. Just one finger and it is slowly scarring and filling in since the hospital failed.

Is the depth on the robax too deep or not deep enough?
Gorgeous space!!
Stephanie Alex too deep. I will do a follow up on it. It is just a preference. It isn’t difficult to use, but if it was a half inch shallower I would’ve preferred it.
Sharon Cullen Art thanks! I’ve been obsessed with them, in fact mine is coming Tuesday, i’ve seen a bunch of videos and the majority prefer the larger so the brushes fit in better.
Guess I’ll see.
Thanks again for the tour!
Beautiful place with a gorgeous view for a great artist. Take care of your finger.
Thank you. It is healing slow but sure. I have a big gap but the scarring is filling in now.
Beautiful space!

@@SharonCullenArt thank so much - this is very helpful. I'll have a look at the videos.
Goullete pens does the ink samples! I love the studio, please do a pastel piece soon, I just rediscovered them, lol.
Heather Bryant goulet pens
Thanks. Several of you have reminded me. I wasn’t sure and thought of them but then thought, nope that’s not it! Ha! I will try to do a pastel piece soon.
Lovely place.Lucky you!
Pat Lambert Thank you. Pat. Yes I am blessed.
'Love the bentwood rocker! You never see them anymore. The Mid-Century Modern piece is cool, too, but nothing is as beautiful as your art. What I wouldn't give for a note on your cards!
Love!
Beautiful art studio 😊👌
What is the size of your studio? Did you build it or custom build? I love it
Both. The concrete pour and shell were done professionally. I designed it. And my husband, a friend, brother in law finished it. It is 18’x24’ with a 4 foot porch.
Question; at 4:40 you mention a 'problem' with using waterproof inks for washes; what problem is that? As a new wash user, I'm curious. Thanks!
Mixing waterproof ink in water for an ink wash painting, it doesn’t mix well because it is waterproof. Did that make sense? I am talking about mixing water into inks in those shot glasses.
@18:11, take everything out of
the leather watercolor pouch
and soak it in water for a day
or two and see if that doesn't
help with the stiffness. Great
tour, thank you & God bless
I always thought once leather dries if in contact with water it would harden. But I’m not using it so it wouldn’t hurt to try. Maybe I will talk to a leather man too.
@@SharonCullenArt i would ask your leather man first. LOL
If you ever have a yard sale with art supplies, let me know. You’re practically a neighbor! Nice she-studio😍
Oh really? Where are you at? I am going to get a plein air group together and another subscriber is interested along with many who live in my area.
Well neighbor as in the state next to you. Not close enough to be in your group tho😞But it would be fun!
Oh! Ha!
I just found your channel and subscribed. I love your studio. What is the total square footage?
It is 18x24 or 432 sq ft. Then I have storage in the loft areas on either side. I don’t know that square footage but the loft behind me is big enough that I plan to have furniture or a chair anyway up there so I can sit to look at my knitting books and decide on projects. My rolling ladder is being built right now. It is going to take up space on one side of the room but I’m looking forward to getting into my yarn and knitting again!. And welcome to the family! Thanks for subscribing.
Just gorgeous! Where is this?
Thank you. Port Austin Michigan.
very nice studio ,expensive for me.I congratulate you. :)
Yeah it was too expensive for me too! Ha! But I am so happy that we had the money to do it. It is a pretty large space. It could be done much smaller for a lot less money. This was just under $40,000 to build i believe. But a ready made shed would work too. We saved a long time on our retirement. About 40 years so we were fortunate to be able to do it.
Looks like an art store haha love the studio
Thanks. I have a great niece who is an aspiring artist who gets lots of my unused supplies. But I may have to begin doing giveaways!
It's a beautiful studio. I love the branch hanging with the plants. The video is kind of dizzying. It would have been better if you sounded more excited about the studio.
I was very excited. I'm sorry you didn't hear it. Maybe I was having a bad day with my pain. So sorry.
i have a Boston too!!!!

what is a ventague machine?
Vintaj is a machine that embossed. I originally got it to emboss metal for jewelry. But then used it also for card making. Here is a link to a video on it. ruclips.net/video/mE007gurPjA/видео.html
Love your studio idea. But you have so many art supplies that if you were to work day and night for the rest of your life. You would never use them all. Note: when it comes to colored pencils. You never have too many.
I agree and in recent videos I speak about this. I am now in a rural area and I’m not sure where to go, but I am going to talk to a local gallery to see if they know of someone.
Ummmm, where’s the bathroom?
No bathroom. My bathroom is in my house about 25 yards away. Putting a bathroom in there would make it another livable dwelling and then I pay taxes on it as I would on my house. We have water that will run 3 seasons. Then in the winter I will take a jug of water for filling my rinse jars etc. Not a big deal for me. I love it.
Lovely space!
Thanks
