Unclutter your mind as you unclutter your studio. Unclutter your mind as you unclutter your studio. This has been my practice ever since I started to paint. Always helped me appreciate my tools a lot more when I had to start painting/sketching once again. Made me realize all the great stuff I have in my studio and what all I could do with it.

However, some of us are not that fortunate to #stayhome but have to go out to either take care of patients, deliver groceries or medical facilities. However some of us are fortunate to have the luxury of staying home and must practice staying home. Though this is the best time for artists, writers and all the creative people to research on our work, create new works, create new ideas, join a community group and if you are not part of one simply start one. You could also give out tutorials online or make a simple video to share with people who are also home and would love to learn something. This is a great time to introspect, excercise, research, cook, learn new skills, organise our stud...

Never realized the importance of decluttering until I realized one day after a frantic clean up session. Ah this feels absolutely great. I feel my life is a lot easier and things I need are easily available! Never did I ever realize until that great day. So here are some tips on how to declutter your art studio: Put things away  - most important go step by step. Once you finish a project, a sketch or a simple research, put them away! It isn't tough and leads you to the next step. Everything needs their home! Yes everything has a home and needs a home. Once you have designated spaces for your objects it simply won't be tough to have them put away (point no. 1). Organise your storage area. Must must must! Must organise your storage area.
