How to make the BEST ART STUDIO +30 tips!

[@Spiroffd]

I have been a art professor for many years and this gives some of the best studio practices advice out there. Thank you for sharing.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

wow, this is truly a great compliment coming from you! thank you. I could never find a video like this so I made one myself. There's another similar video here on my channel.

[@Fortysixand222]

What a sweetheart giving us all this valuable information in a no-frills video for free!

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Julie -- Glad it was helpful! It was fun to do.

[@beverlyjohnson9493]

I agree. The information is valuable and I will definitely us them.

[@lindseyroberts4390]

I can't believe how much content you covered in such a short span! I especially appreciate the hanging hardware portion of your video - I'm a custom framer and will definitely be utilizing your tips whenever possible.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Lindsay -- that's great.

[@TikiJsLounge]

I can’t thank you enough, Chase! I am definitely taking your advice to heart and applying a lot of it to my studio. “Invaluable” is my word today and that is what you are for your sharing, caring, creative spirit. Thank you!

[@andybaillie9939]

I am a KZbin 'studio tour' junkie and this is hands down, one of my favourites.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

thanks so much! another video coming in a couple weeks.

[@patticlancy6500]

Love your sense of organization, and the ingenious tips and solutions made from household items! Thanks, Chase!

[@cdheidt]

The thumbprint is brilliant and I’m stealing it. I work on paper right now, though I will paint on canvas if I can buy them on sale, but still developing my style. And yes, I get paint everywhere, so I need a space in which a mess is acceptable. You have an efficient system and organized studio. Thank you for sharing.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Chris -- I got the thumbprint idea from the BBC tv show "Fake or Fortune".

[@dmor6487]

THE MOST INFORMATIONAL ART ROOM TIPS ON THE INTERNET! YOU ROCK CHASE!

[@Xpload_1989]

Thanks! Keep the informative videos coming! :) Especially liked the tips around making photographs in multiple angles and also a short video. Would like to see more information on the behind the scenes stuff, like finances / keeping your administration in order / what to document, etc.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Galleries and collectors appreciate lots of images that help them get a better look at a painting that isn't available for them to see locally. My galleries will pass on these images to clients to help them decide if they want to acquire the work. Doing a short video is also super helpful. Be super attentive to all details of a sale: pricing, shipping, all details about the art, the gallery and collector info.

[@jenniferlturner9330]

I recently began my creative journey so as not to go bonkers during the pandemic and turned one of our spare bedrooms in to a nice studio for myself and your tips are so helpful! Your work is just amazing and so unique!

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Jennifer -- That is awesome! Glad you did that.

[@elizabethclaiborne6461]

Wow! Your paintings tell the most amazing stories. Thanks for the tips.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

My pleasure 😊

[@teressacooks7928]

Lots of great information. Especially for someone starting out so we begin on a good foundation. Thank you!

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

So glad! Lots to learn.

[@stephinadefelice6080]

Thank you so much... I have been painting for as long as I can remember, and your advice has opened my eyes to a lot of things I have been doing wrong and a few things doing right. I am in my second apartment studio which is a loft I am so happy and I am hoping better for me to succeed more now than before. With your advice, I will elevate my work. Thank you again.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Stephina -- Wonderful!

[@susannebukatz4457]

Thank you very much to share your great knowledge and experience! These tips are very practical and perfect for beginners as well as established artists.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

You're very welcome!

[@glengustafson6959]

Thank you for the great tips. I especially appreciated your idea of putting a thumbprint on the back of your work. Years ago one of my former professors, Karl Kasten, had been asked by one of his collectors to help authenticate some Jackson Pollock paintings on chipboard that he had been offered at a good price. I begged Karl to avoid the task as Pollock is possibly the most counterfeited artist of all time, and instead I was dragged in to assist. We were able to verify two out of the several paintings in the group partly by stray fingerprints that matched those found in Pollock's studio, but it seemed the seller had gotten greedy and added several fakes to his offering - The chipboard used was not available during Pollocks lifetime. I had returned to Los Angeles when the drama in the Bay Area played out, but in the end Prof. Kasten retained his good reputation. For me it was a frightening situation but even at 91 years of age Karl was sharp and fearless.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Thanks for sharing. I feel adding the stamp and fingerprint helps authentication in the future. Have you seen the British show "Fake or Fortune"? Check it out.

[@glengustafson6959]

Haven’t heard of it and will check it out. Are you familiar with Han van Meegeren? He painted excellent forgeries and had to create one during his trial for being a Nazi collaborator to prove the Vermeer he’d traded to Herman Göring was actually one of his fakes.

[@kellierobinsonartist]

This is a great story!

[@JeanneneLangfordartist]

Great job Chase!

[@susankelly4911]

Chase thank you so much for your advice and great tips. I love your way of thinking. The word Elevate says so many positive things. And it does lift you even to say it it gives a sense of freedom and growth and everything that's good. The locking castors is a brilliant idea. And I love a place that's light and airy, whether to live in or paint in, I can't stand dark rooms. The brighter the better for me so I love l your white studio. Thank you I appreciate this video. God bless 👍🙏🕊😀Susan

[@rehasana]

Your tips are different but amazing! I saw your work for the first time a few days ago and I relate to it more than any other artist’s work. I also used to love going through atlases in my childhood and I would know all the countries of the world, where they were, their capitals. I am also not a messy painter, but more methodical and mathematical. I am a big fan. Of your home too.

[@kellierobinsonartist]

Well, I was not expecting that that! This is fabulous advice, thank you so much for sharing. I absolutely loved the invention for leaning wet brushes and the wheel locks and d/ring hanging advice and photography and shipping advice too! I loved it all, oh and beautiful paintings to look at all the way through! There’s so many you tube videos out there with so little concrete useful advice so this is really appreciated!

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Kelle -- Exactly! hard to find constructive studio advice. Look for my other one on my channel. -- C

[@kellierobinsonartist]

@@ChaseLangfordArtist I have subscribed and I played this to my partner, with instructions on how to build my studio as I loved all your tips, aluminium poles for the shelves etc. So many good tips in there and he needed to see these things from an artists perspective, he is a builder and always thinks he knows what's best, (he usually does),but he does see things from a builders perspective so this was great. I love the views from your windows, I have the views of the Sperrin mountains in Northern Ireland, (Game of Thrones country), your views and the weather are very refreshing to see. Thanks again for this video, not just the building tips but the art tips are priceless, things I hadn't thought of, like making a book of your work, paint swatches, your ingenuity and sharing this with everyone is very generous and appreciated. I hope you have a healthy, peaceful and productive summer. All the best x

[@sergiov5184]

Great Video..!! Going to share with my artist friends.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

please do. thanks Sergio.

[@Acorn_artflower]

Very nice

[@tmb9126]

Greetings! There's only been a couple of artists whose abstract work that I like. I find abstract art, usually, to be lacking in aesthetic beauty and it usually seems like a child could do it. Why should someone get money for something like that? But, again, there's been a couple of artists out there that have created works that I find very striking and that look like a great deal of work went in to making them - I have added you to that list. Your work is strikingly beautiful and looks like you actually put a lot of work into them! I can see the talent in your work! You deserve to get paid well for them! God bless!

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

Chase Langford thankyou so much! It's very daunting, but I'm actually taking a canvas into a gallery on Saturday!! I'm so new to this so your videos have really helped me, and your artwork is just outstanding! Who knew there was so much to becoming an artist! I've just started to follow you on Instagram that way I can continue to get motivation! Have a beautiful day x

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]

I really should have talked about organization more. Some artist think that they are suppose to be chaotic but that's silly. It will only undermine their art and success.

[@tanithkershaw]

Chase Langford So very true! I was very unorganised once when painting and the painting itself looked messy and muddy all because I was being lazy and didn’t place my paint in the right place to get at it! It’s simple things that can make art flow better! Mind you, Your organisational skills are to be marvelled at! If I ever get the chance to build a book of sales that would be incredible! at this stage I have zero pages... onward and upwards eh! Thanks again! X

Mr. Langford, do you protect the back of the canvas with a water resistant spray to avoid mold? and what kind of canvas do you use? also, if it's possible, is there a mockup invoice you may show us? Thank you again for showing us the what and the how. Blessings.

[@ChaseLangfordArtist]
