Jerry Scott’s Studio Tour

By Jeremy Meltingtallow

DSC_0356This is where I spend most of my day. The studio is a big room in the center of the house with lots of light. It has morphed into mostly a space for painting and napping thinking, but you can see the drawing board in the corner next to the window that I’ve reserved for working on comic strips. I write most of the strips and draw pencil sketches for Jim, so my part of creating ZITS doesn’t take up a lot of real estate.

 

DSC_0357The right side of the studio is the painting side. I’m an oil painter when I’m not being a cartoonist.

The smaller monitor on the left is for me to view reference photos while I paint, and the larger TV monitor is for   the NFL PBS documentaries. There are a couple of local landscapes in progress on the wall above the TV.

DSC_0361Here’s a better shot of the comic strip corner. If you squint your eyes, you can see it back there by the wastebasket.

 

DSC_0363I wish this area looked more impressive, but I probably spend more time on the couch than at the drawing board while working on ZITS.
