I find it very essential to store those tin cases standing up on 1 side. If you stack them up, people like me just go eh, amma just use whatever I can grab on the top. When I reorganized my drawers, I had them stand up and it made a huge difference for me. My storage tip will always be to put easy access on top priority. It's nice to store things compact, but never sacrifice easy access for that.
First of all, I have to send out a huge thank you for all the 'instruction' you give us in every one of your videos. I've learned, and started using no less, a lot of things from watching you, for both my coloured pencil colourings, as well as some things I've tried with my watercolours and acrylics. Second, the ideas for storage....a life saver lol. I have zero spare room (I literally clear off a spot on my computer desk, which is thankfully huge, to colour on), and some of your ideas are easily modified for my tiny space. And a tiny budget :D
I forget how breathtaking all of your work is. When you were going through the portfolios and boxes, I needed a moment to take in the beauty of each piece. :)
I just wanted you to know that you are a great artist and not only that, you are so well organised! I live in the Caribbean and getting supplies can be costly and sometimes difficult to ship. I wish that I could experience your work and other great artists like yourself in person. Nothing beats that. Nevertheless your videos and live stream are excellent and of top quality. Keep on doing what you're doing because you are affecting lives all over the world artistically in a positive way. Thank you Lisa.
You can use an empty box from a roll of aluminum foil, waxed paper, or plastic wrap to store your glassine roll. I put mine in a Reynolds Wrap box, because I got fed up with it rolling all over the place. It fit perfectly, and protects the roll. Bonus: These boxes have built in cutter edges. ☺
I have several orange tool boxes all the same size that I bought at Home Depot for under $10. I wrote in Black marker on the ends -- "Drawing" - "Oil" -- "Acrylic" -- "Watercolor" etc. --------- I also bought sketchbooks of the same type. I prefer the ring binding from Blicks -- and wrote the same titles on each. It's easy to store on a shelf, and makes the tool boxes & books portable quickly. --- Another tip is that I print in marker on my oil brushes "OIL" -- so that I don't mix them up with my Acrylic or water color brushes.-------- I saw you bought the large brushes. I went to Home Depot and bought their professional Paint brush in the Paint department. It makes it very easy to cover the Oil canvas -- or Acrylic with the first layers of underpainting. I have developed a lot of cool ideas for the studio --- Maybe I should write a book! LOL
Lisa, organization is a skill I have never developed. I now work on a kitchen table or a fold out table in the spare room. I will only deserve more if I work more often.
The main bonus for me having a dedicated studio is that I don't have to put everything away when I'm done working for the night. When I had less space I painted less just because I didn't want to drag everything out and put it away after.
Thanks for this video. Im now looking at my art supplies and thinking how I can better organise things so im much better prepared. I especially like your felted covers for finished artwork. I will certainly be making some of those!
Wow. I live in a city with a ton of amazing architecture and a great art community, so I just take a small backpack with a GoPro, a Global case full of watercolor pencils (Faber-Castell), a waterbrush, and a pad of watercolor paper. Then I can spend two hours on a plein air painting, film it, record a voiceover at home, and then edit at the community tv station nearby.
I bet. I use two industrial strength office shelving units, but organisation is a concept that escapes me. I'm fascinated by it, but seem to be missing that gene.
Loved both of the tutorials you did on your art studio. Great ideas on storage and such. I have three puddies that will not let me store anything that has my scent on it or they will carry it off. Love Terri Simmers
Lisa, you see that gap between the pastel boxes because they have the those little feet, you must measure it and have pieces of MDF cut to fit in there. This will prevent each box not slide off from the one underneath.
Dope, dope video! I'm at the crossroads of reorganizing my studio and maaaan, you brought up a lot of my same issues! Appreciate u sharing your knowledge...
I love how organised all your space is, mine is fairly organised, I have one of those large metal mechanics storage cupboards which has narrow drawers and two deeper drawers. The shallow drawers are perfect for all my trays of pastels, and the deeper drawers one for pan pastel trays, and watercolours and the other acrylics. I have one of those trolleys use use with the three trays which has all my alcohol inks in trays, my airbrush inks are in trays, along with my tins of Inktense and pastel pencils on a bookshelf then I have a big shelving system that has all my canvases, completed paintings ...and more storage boxes like your with bits and pieces. I really should make some of those felt bags ! Stop them getting damaged, I just have them wrapped in glassine. You don’t realise how much storage you need when you use so many different mediums....now I have to have everything covered as our Ragdoll loves to chew my brushes oh I also have acrylic paints on a bookshelf with a timber strip hubby put across the front to stop them falling but kitty loves to chew the tubes ! It is his favourite room in the house as it has a huge window one end that overlooks the pool and backyard, and another window the other end also floor to ceiling ....I tried closing the door at night but he really hated it so I gave in and just cover everything over and he seems to leave it alone.....the things we do for our fur babies....but wow your art space is so much neater and better storage than mine...... Yours is awesome!! Love those boxes you keep finished art work in ....now you are in your new home your studio is stunning !! 💙💙💙😘
Lisa, thanks for the tour! Artist are a curious bunch aren’t we 😊. I have long admired your work and wanted to share one of my storage areas. We found a used architectural drawer system that now stores art work not on stretched canvas done in a variety of medium. I approach local political organizations and asked for the plastic campaign signs that are no longer being used. These make great dividers after you spray them with cheap primer! As for barrier papers. Use painters tape to attach barrier paper to the renovated campaign signs. Also use washi tape and barrier paper to protect pages in my slower drying or tacky study journals. I made a STURDY wooden dowel rod rack that holds different types of paper and packaging supplies - craft brown, butcher, wax paper, parchment paper, glassine, etc. Hope this helps someone.
Instead of using glassine (sp?) in between your paper artwork have you thought of using the Krystal Seal Self sealing Photo bags? They say they are archival and come in a lot of sizes so no cutting up glassine and both sides are protected.
Great video Lisa! 😆 We have some similar storage. The dollar stores have some great plastic bins (large & small) too for those looking. I'm gonna have to do a new studio video soon...I made some big changes/additions. 😃
OMG what a genius idea with the handmade pillow cases for paintings! WOW! Thanks for sharing that tip! And also I have an old china cab I net that is filled with yarn right blow, because I also knit. That isnb’t all of it, bbut I am going to empty it braise it is in my art studio anyway, and put it all away in rubbbermaid bins and then I am going to the dollar store to bbut some of those plastic trays for my supplies. Another genius idea! I do more watercolor and pastel, than oil or acrylic and I am not to the end of the video so Iam hoping you have some genius storage solutions for those. A;though I usually just use the plastic bags for those paintings. But storing them is the hard part. Right now I am just using a cushioned lid bench to store them in. And I use Glycine for my pastel. But I need a better way to store them. Okay now I am further into the video. Duh why didn’t I think of portfolios! HA! The paper I get is Glycine, which was suggested by my pastel instructor and I bought a huge roll on amazon. It is 36” wide by 20 yds. Right now it is $35 on amazon. I bought mine a couple years ago and have plenty left. I eouldn’t waste the money on the folded stuff.
Just a BIG THANK YOU for all these helpful videos💕 they help me to find people who unterstand my crazy kind of understanding and doing things (for example blending schoolnotes😂) and of course they help to improve my drawings...
I love the idea you use for your canvases. I have a few that I've accumulated and need to find a better storage solution. I will definitely try the felt covers. :D I loved seeing your tour. It's great to see the behind the scenes and storage solutions you use! As always, I am in awe of your artistic talent. Thanks for your great videos!
Your studio is so neat and clean! I have the same camera bag :) Great video! It was nice to see how you store things. I'm always looking for new ideas. I love your videos. You're the one that taught me what is possible with colored pencils!
Thanks! That camera bag is great isn't it? I don't use it for my canon because there wasn't room for all my lenses, but it's been perfect for my smaller DSLR and all these little things!
Yes, I do love my bag! I put my camera in it and my lenses. I don't have very many, but it is a tight fit! BTW, I have the prismacolor sticks, or whatever theiy're called, too! I really have not used them yet. Mine are warped too lol.
I use a lot of Sterilite and Iris products; they are clear and most importantly Made in the USA. Have you considered the Iris Project Case? They have various sizes and are acid free. If nothing else your Eternity box might fit inside one, thus keeping it more securely. ;0) I do like Itoya Albums, I have various sizes for artwork, nature prints, postcards, and bookmarks. I also use a lot of Plano Stowaway boxes. They have multiple compartments and come with dividers for making more. I use them for small pieces and parts. One box has brushes and tools.
Here's the Iris Box, Lisa. I have a few of the 12x12 size for prints and whatnot. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DN62PLU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
Great video! Now I feel less quilty, because I went and bought all Cretacolour neros extra-softs and black Faber-Castell erasers I could find, in case they got discontinued. Eraser actually did, but I have 12 of them, which will be enough for rest of my life. Of course, any other eraser wouldn't be as good! :D
I love your studio! It is very organized! I love it!!! I loved the shoe boxes, the jewelry boxes, and how you keep your paintings with case pillows, I loved that! The boxes where you keep your artworks on paper, I loved that too, and I wanted to ask you, because I didn't understand very well, are they made of plastic? I use plastic boxes in the shape of a briefcase, because where I live there is always humidity, so I ask you because I liked them.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😊😊😊
Lovely & Beautiful organizing!!! I am so glad you made this video since there are so many are about supplies. None really about storage & preserving your art supplies. I was wondering since I don't have a studio how can store & preserve extra colored pencils, gel pens, fineliner pens & markers so they don't dry out?
Do you use solvent when oil painting? I’m concerned about toxic fumes and I really don’t have a way to store a work in progress without it getting ruined.
Hi Lisa, I *love* your videos. Seeing your Inktense sets in your IKEA chest of drawers makes me pause to ask: how do you resolve the non-lightfast qualities of this medium? I love the idea of Inktense because I love that they work on top of acrylic paint, but once I heard they faded from exposure to sunlight I got worried. What are workarounds to this?
I love your ideas! I’ve got a growing corner in our family room and will be able to incorporate a lot of them. My wish? I know you’ve got a lot of information to impart to us, but I’d love it if you’d speak a little slower!
the video said there would be links to some supplies but i didnt see them in the desctiption i need the portfolio for colored pencils and the inktense brush.
Lisa, thank you so much for this video and all the others. I have learned so much for you. I have two questions, if I may ask: 1) Where do you get the glassine from? I've been trying to find some here in Germany but none of the art supply seem to carry it. I'd like to try oil pastels and I am pretty sure that placing paper towels between them will not cut it. I got a big roll of transparent paper, but that is not the same either, I believe. 2) I *love* the idea with the felt pillow cases. Are you worried about some archival issues? I have been using bubble foil wrap for storing my acrylic and oil paintings, but I am really not happy about them, fearing that when I get them out of storage they might be imprinted with bubble texture. Take care and keep on being great! :)
Yep, that's still what I'm using for my oil and acrylic brushes :) I have some sitting in mason jars but those don't hold much and it's hard to find stuff in there.
@@Lachri That makes sense! I think I still have few enough that jars will work, but I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye out for the rolls to be on sale. Thanks for answering!
Yeah, now that I should be done reviewing different graphite pencils for a while I should be back to mixing different brands so I will show how I use that stuff :D
I want to how can I get my artwork to my own shop with all my hard artwork that I do alot of art such as drawings, paintings, sculptures, making crafts & pottery etc.
You need to make sure that whatever you use is acid free so it doesn't yellow the work. The thing that makes glassine so great is that nothing will stick to it so you won't have pencil stick to it from one area then smear that pencil to another part of the piece if you move it.
I find it very essential to store those tin cases standing up on 1 side. If you stack them up, people like me just go eh, amma just use whatever I can grab on the top.

This video is so incredibly helpful! The pillow case trick? Omg! Such a simple thing, but life changing for sure. Thank you!
Great use of space! Love how big the room is and how you have everything organized!
Thanks! I would like it to be twice the size, but it works well :D
I just wanted you to know that you are a great artist and not only that, you are so well organised! I live in the Caribbean and getting supplies can be costly and sometimes difficult to ship.

Lisa, this and the other video are so well done. You are so organized. I will NOT let my wife see these.
LOL! I actually enjoy organizing stuff. I'm a freak :P
If you get bored, I am not too far away :)
Lisa, organization is a skill I have never developed. I now work on a kitchen table or a fold out table in the spare room. I will only deserve more if I work more often.
LOL I'm not sure I know what the word bored means :P

I keep watching this video over and over again!!
I like how you organize everything!
Your artwork are astounding. And detailed :)
Sooo Beautiful....so realistic paintings

I loved this video 😍 It looked like heaven 💕
Thank you so much for the sharing . This is really going to help me . Wonderful ideas . God bless
3:54 "OMG it was almost impossible to FUCK- find any specific color that I wanted" This made my day, I laughed so fucking hard
Amazing artwork, you are brilliant.x
You are scarily organised. I cannot grok.
When you have this many art supplies crammed into one room you really have to be!
I bet. I use two industrial strength office shelving units, but organisation is a concept that escapes me. I'm fascinated by it, but seem to be missing that gene.

Is it weird that I just wish you were my friend...you are so much like me!! Btw Always in awe of your style and paintings....saving up to buy one!!
You were my inspiration. My art room is NOW organized :)
So organized.... My supplies are all over the place.
That blue bureau with all your paints and pencils would benefit greatly from some full extension drawer slides
Instead of using glassine (sp?) in between your paper artwork have you thought of using the Krystal Seal Self sealing Photo bags? They say they are archival and come in a lot of sizes so no cutting up glassine and both sides are protected.

OOH! I can't wait to see your tour!!!!
Lachri Fine Art I need to move a big piece first on the wall & finish the edge of my counter and then I will get it done...lol 😉
the art stix are really helpful for backgrounds :)
That's what I was thinking I would use them for :D
:D you'll probably like them for that then haha
i just wish they had more colors

A magnetic bar for knives holds Palette knives for easy access.
Thank you
Hello Lisa, I think this is the first time we have seen your hair down. 😊
Can you make a youtube tutorial of how to make your own felt pillowcase for storing paintings??
Will old sheets work as well for the Painting Pillowcases??
what about the marker work you have done recently- how do you store those?
Lovely & Beautiful organizing!!! I am so glad you made this video since there are so many are about supplies. None really about storage & preserving your art supplies. I was wondering since I don't have a studio how can store & preserve extra colored pencils, gel pens, fineliner pens & markers so they don't dry out?
great video, lisa!
btw your hair looks super cool in this video :)
Thanks :)
Do you use solvent when oil painting? I’m concerned about toxic fumes and I really don’t have a way to store a work in progress without it getting ruined.
Hi Lisa, I *love* your videos. Seeing your Inktense sets in your IKEA chest of drawers makes me pause to ask: how do you resolve the non-lightfast qualities of this medium? I love the idea of Inktense because I love that they work on top of acrylic paint, but once I heard they faded from exposure to sunlight I got worried. What are workarounds to this?
I love your ideas! I’ve got a growing corner in our family room and will be able to incorporate a lot of them. My wish? I know you’ve got a lot of information to impart to us, but I’d love it if you’d speak a little slower!
I LOVE the tiger popping out of the frame, but dont see any prints of it. Will you be selling them sometime down the road?
Great!!!
the video said there would be links to some supplies but i didnt see them in the desctiption i need the portfolio for colored pencils and the inktense brush.
why are u so good???
Your art is outstanding. I am wondering, will wax paper be o.k. to place between art in boxes to keep it from smudging?
Lisa, thank you so much for this video and all the others. I have learned so much for you.
I have two questions, if I may ask:
1) Where do you get the glassine from? I've been trying to find some here in Germany but none of the art supply seem to carry it. I'd like to try oil pastels and I am pretty sure that placing paper towels between them will not cut it. I got a big roll of transparent paper, but that is not the same either, I believe.
2) I *love* the idea with the felt pillow cases. Are you worried about some archival issues? I have been using bubble foil wrap for storing my acrylic and oil paintings, but I am really not happy about them, fearing that when I get them out of storage they might be imprinted with bubble texture.
Take care and keep on being great! :)
I get the glassine from amazon. For the felt cases, you can wrap the artwork in glassine first if you want then put it inside the cloth case :D
Oooh, are you going to do a review of the Derwent watercolor pencils? Also, my drawing supplies are just all over my desk
Yes, once I use them a bit more :D
Lachri Fine Art Cool, can't wait to here what you think of them!
first! Love your videos.
Thanks :D
How did the wood pencil drawers work out?
I love them!! :D I have so many now lol. I keep buying more.
Do you still like the brush rolls for storing your brushes? I'm debating what I want to use now that I am getting more brushes...
Yep, that's still what I'm using for my oil and acrylic brushes :) I have some sitting in mason jars but those don't hold much and it's hard to find stuff in there.
@@Lachri That makes sense! I think I still have few enough that jars will work, but I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye out for the rolls to be on sale. Thanks for answering!
I’m surprised the Inktense tins aren’t ones with your designs on them, but the originals.
Love all the ideas. One question, would your felt "pillow cases" work with resin art?
I'm not sure on that one. I don't actually know much about those to be honest.
Can i use wax paper in place of glasine?
So its not just me that buys multiples of art supplies so i wont run out. I dont feel so weird now lol
can you make a video about how to use graphite dust? :)
Yeah, now that I should be done reviewing different graphite pencils for a while I should be back to mixing different brands so I will show how I use that stuff :D
I want to how can I get my artwork to my own shop with all my hard artwork that I do alot of art such as drawings, paintings, sculptures, making crafts & pottery etc.
Can u give some advice for store sketches.tq.
Can I use tracing paper or newsprint to place between artwork so it doesn't smudge?
You need to make sure that whatever you use is acid free so it doesn't yellow the work. The thing that makes glassine so great is that nothing will stick to it so you won't have pencil stick to it from one area then smear that pencil to another part of the piece if you move it.
