Supplementing light placement, is the ceiling high enough to make the distance to the easel?
Storing place? And so on.
Are you left or right handed?

First of all, I'm going to warn you, I am NOT and never could be a digital artist, heck, I can't even label a picture with this darn mouse! embarassing!
Knowing that, please excuse my very crude labeled prelimary sketch of my studio. My husband just left to meet the contractor with the correctly scaled drawings the architect gave us yesterday. All I have is the first sketch which has changed slightly..I added a wall on the west side of the room which makes the sink now appear recessed in the wall. the ceiling is hipped with the lowest point being 9 ft and I think he said its a 45 degree hip?? as soon as I find out correct information, if it is different from what Im saying now, I'll post it. Initially, the room was 21 x 15 but I think it is a little longer now. the ceiling I want to mimic my new den ceiling which is vaulted with beams and will be in natural pine, I think. a lighter wood just sealed, not stained. So, going into this design, the given's are....natural color wood hipped ceiling, one full exposed brick wall (lighter in value, but variations of color), three sheetrocked walls and two walls have windows...south side is a large 4 or 5 foot solid sheet glass square window and the east side is one 3x5' standard window to the left of a 4' double glass door that has the little square panel windows? tresses?
ok, hope this helps..and Its been a while since i've posted here so I'm going to attempt to upload the picture...hope I get this right!
Thanks in advance for your help! I have one shot to make this great and I want to make sure I don't mess it up!
