If it's to be believed that most artists are low on funds, then finding an affordable art space can become a tricky endeavor. Though the artist needs to find a place to sculpt, paint, or just create, the studio rental prices can be exorbitant for even the largest budget. But there are ways to find an art studio and not become even more of the starving artist that you already are. Here are three tips that you can look into today.

First of all, look around your house - is there any space that you can utilize more effectively? In many cases, you will be able to find an art studio space that can be both comfortable and practical. For example, if you have a garage, you might be able to install a portable heater and the tools that you need to create the ideal artist's space. With minimal funds, you can pick up a sturdy table to support your work as well as lighting to properly illuminate your area when you're working. You can even scrounge garage sales and the classified for these items - many people are trying to clear out their own homes and don't know what to do with these pieces, so they're willing to let go of them for next to nothing.

Another way to create an art studio is to talk to a friend or family member about renting out a portion of their home. Maybe they have a workshop or a garage space that you may be able to use. Granted, you will probably want to pay for a space like, but it will be much less expensive than the other options that you might have. It will help in this case to draft up a contract to outline the terms of your use of the space, as well as make up any penalties for damaging the property as well as outline the rent that you agree to set. While it might seem like a formality, it can be difficult to sort out problems with a rental agreement when you're friends or related to the renting party.

Yet another option is for you to utilize the space in your own backyard is through steel buildings. These sturdy spaces can be bought or put together by you in order to fashion the space that you need. The metal buildings can be equipped with heaters and ventilation systems as well to provide a healthy environment for you to work in - no matter what media you are working with. You can find a large assortment of metal buildings and steel buildings at your local hardware store or construction supply store.

When you're an artist with a dream to build and create, you need a space to do it in. With these ideas, you might be able to save some of your money to actually buy the supplies you need in order to become the famous artist you aspire to be. Why be a starving artist when you don't need to be?
