Chris can you come over?
Pat can you stand the glare from the lights?
Marvin does the "soft" box type fixture you have help with glare.
Steven... OK, OK we got it, but isn't Shepherd spelled with an "a" and no extra "h" in German? JK

It may be. But we won the war.

Just did a major makeover of my studio space. It's not a "dream studio", but more like a "miracle studio" because it's a miracle I have'nt lost my eyesight working up there. First I'll post the original "lighting" setup. Mind you I work in the wee hours of the morning. One is of a lightbulb near the door to the attic, and one is of the Ott-light brand that connects to the easel. That was it. Next is the improvements.

Based on Marvin's suggestions, I purchased fixtures from Home Depot and ordered the Lumichrome (sp?) 98 CRI lights from healthlighting.com. They look pretty good, but I have'nt had the chance to work under them yet. I'm currently going on two hours sleep, and don't expect to work tonight.
The pastel I'm working on is on a Best Halley easel that my wife bought me a couple of years back but never really broke in. There's my table with my pastel collection. Some Giraults, Rembrandts, Polychromos, Unisons and Schminke. The other pic is of a open file cabinet I built from MDF board. I was'nt looking to do anything fancier and I did'nt want to spend too much on material.
There's a ton of junk around the room that had been stashed away that I still need to organize. It's a decent sized area, but the ceilings are about 6 1/2 feet in the middle of the room and I can't extend my easel. Better than what I had before, so I should'nt complain.

A much needed improvement, Jimmie. I often envision you shivering in your attic with blankets wrapped around you and a candle next to you, suffering away in your passion to create great art art
