This is my current iteration of my workspace. I have a limited area and I test new setups to find out what works best. I have a movable tray next to this that has my other art materials. It's easier than to put them on the table and lose more working space. 

I often get distracted by other courses or classes, a shiny object syndrome. I made a separate list where I can put them and return to them in the future, so I won't feel like I'd need to take them right there and then or lose them forever .
