I needed to soundproof my massage therapy studio so I contacted a company in Erie, PA to purchase their wall foam. But the sales person gave me a money saving tip that I've used for 20 years. He said to look at the opening around your door when it's closed; if you see light, then sound can come in also. Place weatherstripping and a door sweep and you're good to go. Really deadens the sound.
Hello Chuck. You went to great lengths to make your room cater to your needs and you did an amazing job. Clean, tidy, and structured. I hope it helps you to enjoy it more. I transformed my 2nd bedroom into a bedroom/study. I still have some shelving to put on the walls. So I know how important it is to feel content and inspired. It's amazing how changing your environment changes you. Great job. ❤
Yes, today everything is in its right place...... We'll see in the future... That's how I started, today I don't know where the door to exit is... Good luck
The difference is day and night from what it was in the beginning. 1.8 k is not a lot considering what you have achieved. Well done and well deserved. Stay blessed and keep producing awesome art.
I love your new studio. Everything has its perfect place. I can only imagine all the beautiful masterpieces the world can enjoy that will come out of your new studio. Thank you for sharing with us.
The podium as a palette is genius! Portable & adjustable, plus there’s room to store brushes and paint. Definitely going on my art wishlist. Thanks for sharing!
GLENN IN LOUISIANA, AGAIN CHUCK: I literally cried when I saw this wonderful video of you long deserved studio. Weird seeing you rip out the things i watched you install over the years. From day one, you have been my teacher. I went from learning what a Princeton Dagger could do, to how to use Golden Open, to painting complex landscapes, all with two teachers: My mom when I was a kid, and you since I was 65. I’m 77 now, my last painting sold for 3K. I don’t make that regularly but it happened. I love painting and acrylics is what I staid with due to air quality in my stuffy studio. You have motivated me to renovate but I have to go slow, getting old. IT IS TRUE THAT YOU ALONE MOVED ME FROM AN INVALID UNABLE TO DO MUCH INTO A FULL FUNCTIONING PAINTER. I will have a website in this year and will show you. I praise you for such dedicated work, such craftsmanship and skill in building. I love the easel, the palette desk, and the long table. I see you working solitarily as always, my monk friend, my mentor, my friend, if I may call you a friend! God bless you! I have much more to say but enough for now. YOU ARE THE BEST ARTIST ON THE INTERNET IN TERMS OF MORALE AND MORAL INTEGRITY, INDEPENDENCE, AND BEING TRUE TO YOURSELF. For music, try this great self-styled entrepreneur in Europe, Reinhardt Buhr. Put some of his YouTUBE MUISC ON AND FLOAT AS YOU WORK. MAN O MAN AM I PROUD OF YOU!!!!! YOU PRINTS HAND ON MY WALLS. - GLENN 0:01
Having a space dedicated to art would be a dream! Thanks so much for sharing your work. We all can get inspired and apply what we can to our own spaces. Yours turned out amazing.
It will be amazing for you Chuck. Well deserved. My husband bought me office desk furniture for my studio don’t have the guts to tell him it’s not that functional 😬. Hope you enjoy your studio for years to come.
@@neosapienz7885 …dark walls look good, and create a nice intimate atmosphere, but I don’t think it’s very practical when it comes to art. Warm white sounds really good, that would be my choice too.
@@neosapienz7885 I did black and white in my studio and it worked out great! As long as the ceiling is white and you have good lighting I think you’re fine.
You have very beautifully transformed the space,it really reflects you. Space like this make you never leave it or you never know when time flies ,it really makes your thoughts and imagination come to life on the canvas .I really enjoyed watching this video .❤❤
Thanks for sharing that makeover. I am in a creative/ motivational funk and this has inspired me to reorganize my painting area, clean it up and get back on track!
I absolutely love this well-deserved makeover, however, at the 9:16 point, my heart skipped a beat. I worry that the defuser fabric could catch on fire from the heat of the bulb. I'm sure you know what you are doing though. Enjoy your new space.
Green is gorgeous color my favorite. The whole transformation is super clean , even though it wouldnt have worked for me i will add a stadium lighting and it still wont be enough..but it looks awsom..
From how u spoke in the winter video I knew you were about to do a complete makeover u r taking everything that dosnt inspire u n making your space an area that dosnt hinder you yet has caught up with your many achievements n success..love it..❤❤
I’m in this exact stage of upgrading the studio. I felt extremely relatable to the first 2 minutes lol. Was hard to let go of all my diaper and Amazon cardboard box storage containers.
Outstanding transformation, Chuck!!! The colour on the walls is perfect. In the house I had, before moving here with mom, to take care of her, I had a 20' x 16' studio, and I used a charcoal grey on the walls. It was very close to the grey-green you used. I did the ceiling in sky blue. There was space in it for three workspaces...and a sofa. Here, there isn't space for me to do a lot of work. It's very pleasing to see you've created a space that promotes your creativity!!!
Thanks for the comment, Mark! Really means a lot to me. Blue ceiling sounds really interesting. I hate the popcorn on mine, otherwise I might have tried painting it too, but didn't want to deal with it. Glad you enjoyed!
@@chuckblackart Actually, the popcorn on a ceiling isn't difficult to remove. A 12" wide drywall mud knife will usually scrape it off quite easily, then just sweep it up and to the trash with it. It would be a little bit of a hassle to do now, though, since you've already got the studio set up and going. Some cheap plastic drop cloths taped at the top of the walls and over the floor would be a good way to give it a go, if you ever wanted to do it. That way you could just gather them up and toss all of it at once. The grey-green walls, with a sky blue ceiling, could give an "in-the-forest" feel to your studio 😉
This turned out great Chuck, you will enjoy the better organisation and workflow of this space better, I went through the same process a couple of years back, gives you a sense of pride in your space and work.🙌
I really love what you've done. It really looks like some place you really want to be and I can even feel the creative energy that you're ready to manifest. Well done!
I'd never heard of using gray/green for a studio before (that could make an interesting video), but I love the idea! Also, the use of the crate for a paint rack is genius!
You did a great job Chuck!! I’m constantly moving my tiny space around to paint and for all my tools & paint. It’s my small apartment “dining” room which I keep expanding into my living room. I love how uncluttered your space is! 😉
🙏Amazing transformation of your art studio, enjoy your new artistic studio environment & be inspired to do more creative artworks. Thanks for sharing 🙏👍👏😉❤️
Well done! It's beautiful, dramatic and functional. I too have an entire room dedicated to my art studio, but no skills to re-build it on my own. But I'm not unhappy with what I have. I just need to work a bit more on cleaning out stuff I don't use anymore (I'm a crafter as well). Your new studio has inspired me to work in mine today!! What I need is a spot for photography - a light box, etc.
That is so nice! :) No one should feel ashamed to spend a good amount of money of making their room nicer, especially if the room is also your workspace. It is so understated how important it is to create an environment that supports who you are as a person and how you like to work or relax. It will inhibit your own creativeness and help you ward off stress factors and unwanted input. I strong urge everyone who spends a lot of time in a small space, to just make it nice and comfortable for you.
👋Hi Chuck, it's a perfect working space, beautiful appearance, bright, organized and good for one's mental health. Plus you've done an outstanding job on do-it-yourself. Wonderful ! Happy Easter, and have a nice week.👍💖
Looks amazing! I also added track lights to my space, but the shadows the lights cast drive me bonkers so I still use my easel light. I’m going to have to get the fabric to cover my lights, that might help me. Thanks for posting this!
Wow, the studio turned out amazing!! I am a firm believer in how much a very organized space can improve one’s work, and I am sure you will enjoy the new place very much!
Beautiful studio space and so functional! I can't wait to see your next paintings in this fabulous space. Thanks for showing links to all the upgrades!😍🎨
What a great job you did with your studio. I just came across your video. You are very handy and your studio is so beautifully organized . Enjoy it! Well deserved.
Turned out great! 👍I recommend adding a plant to your studio (real or fake). I recently bought a 4' tall fake plant for my studio and it makes the space more inviting.
Wow, Chuck,that is an incredible transformation, and not bad for total end cost. I have a plain and simple studio. I've been watching your vids for a long time now and i must say I really like what you've done 👍
There is nothing better than a studio that makes you feel good. I had a decent studio that burned down last year. I am hoping to start new soon. I too will be making the space very appealing, as my clients will be seeing the space too. I think you spent good money to transform your room into something to be proud of! Great job!
Isn’t it weird how stuff builds up over the years until we finally have had it with the area and have to do a complete makeover? What’s weird about it is the final straw that breaks the camel’s back, so to speak, in the area to where there is no return and prompts us to action. We just never know what that final straw will be. Though it’s a lot of work, the result is normally so rewarding. Thanks for sharing your reward with us. 😮
Good job! It’s so nice to have a studio space that lifts our spirits when we go into it. And to reflect how we feel as a person. Love it that you’ve done this Chuck and I love that olive green wall colour. Spot on!
Love this! Thanks you for showing this... I am a painter (Both commercial/industrial painter and an artist first, [was a designer illustrator for over twenty years]) I can tell you that you should have sprung for a 4" brush to cut in with, it's the same price as the one you bought practically, covers better and flows further. Buying a pole arm for the roller is a must, even if it is just a stick. It allows you to stand away from the wall and go top to bottom with little effort, making the whole flow of the paint wet to wet with no overlapping of semi dried paint. Over the years I have made for myself a workshop, something I consider essential as an artist, I watch tons of videos about woodworking, and make all my own equipment, from Edsel to panels. I would urge you to begin acquiring some better tools, start first with a power drill set. Then get a nice compound miter saw. These two things will vastly open up possibilities and cut your work time for projects.
Thanks Chris! It was what we had on hand so I said good enough! Even returned the new power saw and said old handsaw will do it 😅 I love my drill though it's been a game-changer for sure, I originally bought it for ice fishing. Thanks for the tips
Chuck, I love what you did with your room. I’ve been thinking about redoing my art space and you’ve given me a lot of really great ideas. I especially liked your fix for the glare on your paintings from the lighting. I also really liked how you made yourself your own box for your paintings to dry. I have a hard time with that. Thank you for all the great ideas and showing me that it’s actually financially feasible for me to be able to do that.❤
well-planned and executed! As a fellow artist, I know how important it is to have a space you can create in. One that has the lighting, equipment and comfort you want/need, because we spend hours and hours.......and hours in that space! Congrats on a job well done! My favorites are the wall easel and the adjustable track lighting. Wait! You got married? Congratulations on that too! I wish you many years of happiness and companionship. Will be 38 years for us this May!
I needed to soundproof my massage therapy studio so I contacted a company in Erie, PA to purchase their wall foam. But the sales person gave me a money saving tip that I've used for 20 years.

Thanks for the heads up! I was looking for a solution that was cheap and thought about hanging moving blankets, but those can be pricey too
This is one of the best art studios I've seen, thank you for sharing the process with us
Hello Chuck. You went to great lengths to make your room cater to your needs and you did an amazing job. Clean, tidy, and structured. I hope it helps you to enjoy it more. I transformed my 2nd bedroom into a bedroom/study. I still have some shelving to put on the walls. So I know how important it is to feel content and inspired. It's amazing how changing your environment changes you. Great job. ❤
Couldn't agree more, Thank you Nikkia it definitely will help
“Clean, tidy and structured.” That’s what I need in my life.
Yes, today everything is in its right place...... We'll see in the future...
That's how I started, today I don't know where the door to exit is...
Good luck
The difference is day and night from what it was in the beginning. 1.8 k is not a lot considering what you have achieved. Well done and well deserved. Stay blessed and keep producing awesome art.
So glad you made your studio the way you wanted it because you deserved it. Happy painting.😊
I know when i make positive changes to my room it makes me feel better and inspires me to be in there more.
I love your new studio. Everything has its perfect place. I can only imagine all the beautiful masterpieces the world can enjoy that will come out of your new studio. Thank you for sharing with us.
The podium as a palette is genius! Portable & adjustable, plus there’s room to store brushes and paint. Definitely going on my art wishlist. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing! I'm sharing this video with my artist husband whose studio looks like it's been ransacked.
GLENN IN LOUISIANA, AGAIN CHUCK: I literally cried when I saw this wonderful video of you long deserved studio. Weird seeing you rip out the things i watched you install over the years. From day one, you have been my teacher. I went from learning what a Princeton Dagger could do, to how to use Golden Open, to painting complex landscapes, all with two teachers: My mom when I was a kid, and you since I was 65. I’m 77 now, my last painting sold for 3K. I don’t make that regularly but it happened. I love painting and acrylics is what I staid with due to air quality in my stuffy studio. You have motivated me to renovate but I have to go slow, getting old. IT IS TRUE THAT YOU ALONE MOVED ME FROM AN INVALID UNABLE TO DO MUCH INTO A FULL FUNCTIONING PAINTER. I will have a website in this year and will show you. I praise you for such dedicated work, such craftsmanship and skill in building. I love the easel, the palette desk, and the long table. I see you working solitarily as always, my monk friend, my mentor, my friend, if I may call you a friend! God bless you! I have much more to say but enough for now. YOU ARE THE BEST ARTIST ON THE INTERNET IN TERMS OF MORALE AND MORAL INTEGRITY, INDEPENDENCE, AND BEING TRUE TO YOURSELF. For music, try this great self-styled entrepreneur in Europe, Reinhardt Buhr.

Well said could not have stated it better
"and supports my mental well-being". Heavy words felt fully. Studio looks great and art is incredible.
Must be my Italian heritage but I can not work with my back to the door...LOL. Love the space and thanks for the video!
I wish my studio was a nice.
I'll definitely borrow some design elements 😅
Awesome room . My 5 year old son said " that was cool. " Paint the world ! Have fun with the new room . Now you need a sound system.
What a fantastic setting to spend time in! The paint colour, wood accents, and lighting all look so good together. Enjoy!
FANTASTIC! As a fellow painter, I know how you feel. This was a very meaningful move. All the best!
Superb. Just needs a snake plant and/or Devils Ivy, keep the air clean and keep you connected to nature.
Having a space dedicated to art would be a dream! Thanks so much for sharing your work. We all can get inspired and apply what we can to our own spaces. Yours turned out amazing.
It will be amazing for you Chuck. Well deserved. My husband bought me office desk furniture for my studio don’t have the guts to tell him it’s not that functional 😬. Hope you enjoy your studio for years to come.
You are my hero and so fortunate to have such a lovely space. I hope you are enjoying it.
You just breathe life into your paintings. You are an incredible artist.
I’m loving how everything is coming together and how you’re able to work on many things at a time!!!
Nice buddy, this is a very deserved change. Your art has a way of inspiring me more than anyone else. Keep it going and stay refreshed.
I'm humbled. Thank you so much
White walls have always been the traditional choice as they give maximum light, but every artist is different and you’ve created a lovely cosy den.
I went with warm white walls and ceiling, otherwise would have been too dark. I almost went with charcoal black, though.
@@neosapienz7885 …dark walls look good, and create a nice intimate atmosphere, but I don’t think it’s very practical when it comes to art. Warm white sounds really good, that would be my choice too.

This has been the BEST studio remodel video presentation. Looks great.
Loved how it all turned out! Congratulations on your studio, it’s every artist’s dream 🙌🏼
Well thought out. Beautiful, functional, and elegant ambiance. Enjoy!👍
You have very beautifully transformed the space,it really reflects you. Space like this make you never leave it or you never know when time flies ,it really makes your thoughts and imagination come to life on the canvas .I really enjoyed watching this video .❤❤
The ASMR was so soothing to watch!!! Loved the color green ❤!!
Thanks for sharing that makeover. I am in a creative/ motivational funk and this has inspired me to reorganize my painting area, clean it up and get back on track!
Way to go Chuck. Your followers can gain many good ideas from your new studio space!
Gorgeous men's art studio! 👌💙💙💙
Fantastic job on the remodel! Congrats on the new workspace. Hope it serves you well for years to come.
Hi. Your studio looks amazing. The design and layout is just perfect. I hope you enjoy your revamped space.
I absolutely love this well-deserved makeover, however, at the 9:16 point, my heart skipped a beat. I worry that the defuser fabric could catch on fire from the heat of the bulb. I'm sure you know what you are doing though. Enjoy your new space.
Thanks Jan, they get barely warm at best right there so I'm not worried about it. I appreciate it I will!
I identified with the starting scene. Looks perfect now. I love the adjustable podium.
Green is gorgeous color my favorite. The whole transformation is super clean , even though it wouldnt have worked for me i will add a stadium lighting and it still wont be enough..but it looks awsom..
From how u spoke in the winter video I knew you were about to do a complete makeover u r taking everything that dosnt inspire u n making your space an area that dosnt hinder you yet has caught up with your many achievements n success..love it..❤❤
A lot of changes moving forward for sure. Thank you so much Gwen.
Thank u chuck..u inspire me
Now you did it! I've been putting the same thing off for years but you pushed me over the edge! New studio here I come.
Definitely worth the effort!
I’m in this exact stage of upgrading the studio. I felt extremely relatable to the first 2 minutes lol. Was hard to let go of all my diaper and Amazon cardboard box storage containers.
Wow, this is a beautiful space that you have created. Thank you for sharing the process. It is an inspiration.
Thats a painter's dream room. You did an awesome job on it .
Much better. Looks calming as well. the colours, light and layout.
One of my Favorite 😍 studio makeover videos on UA-cam 😊👍🏻

Thanks Leigh! Indeed it does and I'm already thoroughly enjoying it
Absolutely nailed it there, Chuck. What an excellent workspace and you didn't have to break the bank.
I really needed this video soo much 🤧, thank you sooo much chuck for sharing this video ✨!
Can't believe you dint paint a Burnt Ciena underpainting on the walls LOL. Very nice, job well done.
lol Thanks Don

I agree and I'm sure it will help. Thank you Maria
Loved how it looks, went from beginner artist to professional artist. Fantastic job. A lot of work went into this art studio and it is just amazing.
Beautiful studio space and so functional! I can't wait to see your next paintings in this fabulous space. Thanks for showing links to all the upgrades!😍🎨
My pleasure thank you Sheila!
What a great job you did with your studio. I just came across your video. You are very handy and your studio is so beautifully organized . Enjoy it! Well deserved.
Beautiful art studio. I'm thinking of getting a shed and making an outdoor studio for myself. You've given me ideas, thanks!
Awesome room
I remember the old black walls. This is so much better!
good times lol Thank you I couldn't agree more
Turned out great! 👍I recommend adding a plant to your studio (real or fake). I recently bought a 4' tall fake plant for my studio and it makes the space more inviting.
What a transformation, and it really seems to reflect you. Well done.
Thanks Terri
Wow, Chuck,that is an incredible transformation, and not bad for total end cost. I have a plain and simple studio. I've been watching your vids for a long time now and i must say I really like what you've done 👍
Your studio is going to be a dream. Love the color.
Already is, thanks Diania
Great Video. As a fellow artist nothing better than a personal studio space
Thank you for sharing this process with us. Very inspiring! I recently converted my Blick H-frame easel into a wall easel and it's so much better!
Well deserved Chuck. Wishing you many happy painting hours in your new studio. 😃😃😃😃
Thanks Paul
You built a Heaven ❤❤
May God make you Happy and prosperous ❤
Wow! All that hard work really payed off. It looks great.
There is nothing better than a studio that makes you feel good. I had a decent studio that burned down last year. I am hoping to start new soon. I too will be making the space very appealing, as my clients will be seeing the space too.
I think you spent good money to transform your room into something to be proud of! Great job!
Good luck with your new studio. Thank you I appreciate it!
Good luck with your new studio❤
Very nicely done sir. I am currently experiencing studio envy. You are correct, you do deserve it. Applause.
Isn’t it weird how stuff builds up over the years until we finally have had it with the area and have to do a complete makeover? What’s weird about it is the final straw that breaks the camel’s back, so to speak, in the area to where there is no return and prompts us to action. We just never know what that final straw will be. Though it’s a lot of work, the result is normally so rewarding. Thanks for sharing your reward with us. 😮
Paragliding......bungee jumping.....river crafting.......n so on .......u shud not give up on hobbies.... 🙏🏻
Love it! Green is my favorite color. Enjoy your new space.

This is a gorgeous effort of an artist. Epic space created in process. Minimalist inspiring in artist space.❤❤❤❤❤
Wow! Beautiful studio, man. You've given me ideas on increasing the size of my studio space. Thanks for sharing.
Your studio is as beautiful as your art work. Thank you for sharing this. It's the inspiration I needed right now. Cheers, mate.
It's now a beautiful place to work! Great job with all the extra workspace!
