I. My art “home away from home”
Nearly every week I come to paint with friends at this art studio, tucked away in the vineyards of Paso Robles. My friend Deb had it built years ago. I met her and Paula when we took a pastel class together two years ago. Since then, it’s become my art “home away from home.” We sit and paint and laugh and chat and encourage each other. It’s been a blessing to have such friends in my life.
II. Terrill Welch’s Art Studio
Terrill’s artwork and studio has been an inspiration to me since I first met her over five years ago when I began blogging. I loved the way she talked about her work and her creative process on her blog at Creative Potager. And I loved the charming space that she worked in and her beautiful surroundings on Mayne Island in British Columbia
She created her own U-Tube video of her home art studio which I am happy to share here. Recently she opened her own art gallery to showcase her artwork.
III. Kelly Rae Robert’s “Soul Shine” Art Studio
I’ve never met Kelly, but I fell in love with the studio she shared with three other women when I was searching for inspirations for my own studio. I love the color, the whimsy, and all the creative ways of organizing and storing art supplies.
Her website and blog are full of lots of interesting and inspiring articles and podcasts. You can take a tour of her “Soul Shine” studio here. She has since moved on and tours of her new studios can be found here.
What inspires you in your work? Do you have any favorite art studios or writing spaces that inspire you to create?

What a wonderful surprise and fun Deborah to have you feature the home studio from a few years ago and the new gallery that opened this August. I am sitting in the loft studio this morning reading your post and thinking about how quickly some things change and yet others stay the same. Your studio home away from home seems like an awesome place to paint with friends. All the best and thank you for sharing my work, home and gallery.

At the moment we’re in transition and are staying with family, so I don’t have those spaces and miss them keenly. Can’t wait to find a new home and set up my creative spaces. I love this post Deborah, thank you.

Such great studios! I’d never want to leave. So you make visual art as well? At this point in my life I’m incredibly grateful to have a loft. We rent a cozy, split level townhouse. The loft looks out over the wood stove. It’s where we paint, write, read and snuggle with our fur baby. ❤️

Your place sounds lovely. I wouldn’t want to leave there either. I love to paint when I’m not writing. An escape from words. I need that space sometimes.
