Artists of Todos Santos

“In the studio I usually work sitting down with my pastels to my right and a large rag in my lap.  A white butcher tray serves as a sort of palette where I put the sticks I am currently using.” He continues, “Then there is usually music playing and plenty of fresh air.  While modern pastels are non-toxic for the most part, there is still a lot of dust associated with using them and I try to keep the studio well ventilated with open windows and a fan.”

Mike’s studio is about 200 sq. ft.  There are color-correct lights suspended from the high ceiling the entire length of the room and all of the table lamps have color-correct bulbs.  A large, counter-height  table provides him with space for laying out work and for framing, which he does himself.  Overhead storage bins hold papers and mat boards.  And, if he needs a break, the other end of the room is his personal gym/training room space.

Two things are very important for Gloria’s work, her proximity to the ocean and good ventilation. Her main medium being “Encaustic (hot wax)” requires good air flow because of its toxicity. Plenty of open walls and good views of the blue water makes this space optimum for the artist.

 Gloria is a mixed media conceptual artist working with different materials from paper, wood, metal, found objects from 2D to 3D.

 She is planning a couple of encaustic and collage workshops in the following year, which will be held right here in her studio.
