So after doing the math and retrospecting over my general well being, I figure I have a caffeine addiction. After three days of no caffeine, I was a miserable, depressed, unproductive artist.

After throwing back caffeinated chocolate and some iced tea, I was back to my old self. So I'm going to catch up, take a two week break to kick my caffeine addiction, and then get back to art.

I've been playing around with the animation utility in photoshop (yay), ctrl F5 to load my new avatar. Cookies if you can guess where it's from :D.

For all you artists/writers out there!; What do you keep on hand in your workspace?

I'll admit, mine is fairly overloaded;

2 desks, one laptop stand (for workspace and storage, soon to be inheriting a filing cabinet as well from my mother)
Wacom Intuos3 6x8 tablet
My computer + monitor
Artograph Lighttracer (10"x12" lightbox)
Canon Lide90 scanner
4 different sketchbooks
Pile of 140lb 8.5x11 (I think) bright cardstock
Even bigger pile of 90lb 11x17 paper
Epic sized pile of 90lb 8.5x11 paper
Full spread of Copic inking pens (from 0.05 to 0.8)
Few Microns ( 0.1-0.5)
Lyra pencils (4h-6b)
random miscellaneous art pencils
4x Mechanicals, 0.5mm in 2h and 2b, and 0.7mm in 2h and 2b
20+ mars plastic erasers <3 <3 (damn cats keep stealing them)
4 simple steel pencil sharpeners
30cm t-square + 4-5 other rulers
Three hole punch for letter sized paper
Sharpie Markers
Several hundred mixed colored pencils (laurentians/crayolas)
At least 4 different clipboards.

And this makes me realize just how much god damn crap I have for art XD

So what do you have on hand in your main art space? :3
