Learn a little about how illustrator Sabina Fenn lets light and creativity into her ever-expanding home studio. From plants and fresh air to vision boards and art supplies, there’s no shortage of inspiration.
What is a must-have for your work space?
Sunlight! I chose the room in the house that had the best sunlight, I think it energizes me and helps me focus. Also, lots of colour, I like to collect little things that inspire me, like wonky frames, or samples from projects I've done in the past, artworks from other artists, little notes and such that I put on a cork board, anything that makes me feel good.
