Hello dear friends, today is the fresh subject how to make your own perfect work place. As we all spend a lot of time working (I am spending even more) it is really good idea to organize everything in perfect way. It means to decrease losses and so to increase the positive result in better way.

Now I`ve started a very new area which takes a lot of time. From one hand it needs to learn one terrible soft (still looks terrible) and from the other hand it needs to develop one technique named GongBi - chinese painting with many details. It requires a lot of light and yesterday I started to do it right on my computer table. It has several serious disadvantages which takes my energy away. First was I wasn`t able to do just one thing, painting, and turn onto computer lectures of, as you see, Koread historical drama about Imperor`s court in Choson period. It was pleasant, but I found it unsustainable. The second thing was I felt constantly anxiety about water for painting in dangerous close distance to my external hard drives.

So I decided to make the special place for chinese painting in my Bamboo cabinet. To rethink that idea I decided to go to the very creative space: a construction hypermarket.

If you are not so sure what to do, or feel your idea isn`t baked enough, the best thing is to go in such a place and to start surfing around, catching all of new ideas and association. That`s why I hate glamour trade centres (it forces customer`s mind with  foriner`s ideas) and admire construction hypermarkets which turns my mind to work in gentle manner. Try it, and you can see the differencies.

This is the huge space full of colorful wallpapers. Beautiful, isn`t it?

Samples of wallpapers:

Samples of fabric for curtains. I was cought with the idea to make some changes with fabrick, but I already have pretty nice ones so I just enjoyed the reach colors and textures and surf ahead:

According to ancient Chinese practice FengShui, lights, crystals and shining glass attracts positive energy. It really have sense so I enjoyed the beauty:

The same with samples of colors:

Look how it`s different and reach!

That section always made me exciting:

My old drill Makita still works good so I went to the tools section and enjoyed the colorful world of screwdrivers feeling myself as a kind of Doctor Who

At the end I came to the section I need. A big panels of natural wood, with fragrance of pitch:

That one, from pine tree, without any processing, so fresh! That one is blessed to became my new working table!

With the pine-tree panel I went to the section of specials for wood to protect it. As I plane to work with water colors it seemed good idea to cover the pine-tree pael with something… I chose the green color reminded me young bamboo in Tian Tai Buddhists monastery, China:

...And among thousands colors it was the one which ended!

I thought to delay the covering for the next week and went home with my new pine-tree panel and bright plans what to do.

I will write the end of the story next post, because I`ve  just finished my new work place and deadly tired.

Just one thing I want to repeat one more time: don`t be afraid of new customized decisions.

Try new things. Try at least to think in different way. You will see how your wasted energy start to return and you will feel new better decision is somewhere around.

This is sustainable way to overgrowth yesterday for better tomorrow. Tank you for being with me,

Tired and happy Anna
