Drew Lawson Freelance illustrator and graphic designer California, U.S.A. "My work space is split up around the house based on what I am working on at the time. Upstairs is my office and desk which is always covered with papers and works in progress. I cleaned it off and found this collage with a drawing I made with white out!" "This is one of the things I’m working on at the moment along with a mural design and a old school cut and paste punk ‘zine. This is a pencil drawing of a friend’s brother who passed away recently." "These are my toys that I collect, and they hang out on this shelf I built and watch over me while I work." "Here are some art books I keep on this rickety bookcase that I have had forever." "I also put out a local arts magazine in color with ads, ect. Here is a piece I was doing the other day on B&W photo art." "The computer room here is also a guest room and looks really stark and plain. The only distraction I need in here is my little tech deck. It helps me relax." "Here we are out back in the “lab”. This is a piece I did for a contest at my other job. Hope you enjoyed looking around. Keep creating!"- DL

Lisa Stewart (ECStewart Designs Inc) Raleigh NC http://ecstewart.com http://ecstewart.blogspot.com "I wanted to showcase the hard work that my fabulous husband, Andrew constructed. Believe me, it won't stay this impeccable. Three years ago, we designed my office and he pretty much did all the labor (building,installing) including the studio door! At the very least, I painted the walls. Overall, I wanted the shelves to be different -undulating and Disneyesque; areas to showcase 3D work; a cockpit design so that I could roll back and forth (the cats now know to tuck their tails!); and a dedicated place to keep my portfolios orderly (right by the door)." "The key to my personal organization are plastic bins." "Unfortunately, I had to remove my drawing table (downstairs in our theater now production area) where I paint my originals and replace it with kitty gear. Pip, our Ocicat has become a permanent studio cat due to his 'not playing well with others' issue. One day I'll be able to reclaim that space." "Can you tell that I love red?" "Shrine corner that extends to the bulletin board to kitties in my life" "I collect gargoyles and have a few guarding the studio." "I collect cigar boxes in many forms and here's a shot of one I use as a greeting card holder." "I have lots of beautiful mugs, but this one is simply unforgettable and has taught me that dogs have a sense of humor and the preferred spelling of food." "Here is a sample of some of my first printed fabrics." "Looking out my studio window. In many cases, there will be more than one squirrel fighting and it's entertaining to watch them playing king of the bird feeder." -LS
