Although my art background is traditional, the computer has
become one of my primary artmaking media, a repository of my
records and my lifeline to the world.
I no longer have views of marsh, river and
ocean; the office is now in the peak of our octagonal house,
a loft above our living room. It is a challenging but functional
space I share with Mary
Taylor, my studio manager, and a wireless network of three
Macs, a Microtek 9800XL scanner, a Tektronix Phaser 780, a 13" Epson Stylus Pro 3800 and a 13" Hewlett-Packard B9180. |

My studio is in the basement. It has low
ceilings, but good light. The storage spaces are largely behind
sliding doors which act as gallery walls. The 44" Hewlett-Packard Z3100 and 44" Epson 9600 printers are served from both 17" Macbook Pro. The CODA laminator, which I also use as a monoprint
press, is at the end of one of two 4'x 8' rolling tables with
storage underneath for traditional art materials. Tools hang
over the workbench.
It rarely looks this neat with plaster,
tar, encaustic and collage materials usually covering every
horizontal surface. |
