Left Out

In the Studio

When the studio empties of people every afternoon, and the day’s activity settles into the building, what gets left out on the work tables is nearly as poetic as the completed work itself. Ming Choi’s preparatory sketches on the paper covering his area; Yolanda Ramirez’s source photograph propped beside the work in progress along with the soda can and bag of chips; Betty Benard’s robot model powered down for the evening; the plastic cups of paint, can of brushes, packs of colored pencils waiting for Loren King to return, all give a secret glimpse into a normally unseen part of a creative life, just one of the everyday benefits of a visit to the studio.
