Hyperallergic is running a terrific View from the Easel series that will satisfy anyone interested in artist studios.  Vancouver artist Amelia Alcock-White says hers “has been relegated to the dark underworld of a basement” after her second child moved into the bright, south-facing room she once used.  She says it works impressively now.

“I crank up the fan and baby monitor to some good ol’ sleeping babe rhythms,” she says. “My strategy: to find Zen anywhere and work within any available time allowance.”

Here is some of her work, from the series Water Born.–Intertidal 18 x 36 inches

–Matthew’s Aquarium 30 x 40 inches

–Through the Looking Glass 24 x 36 inches
