The Artist in his Studio is an oil painting on panel by Rembrandt c. 1628. The painting shows
an artist' studio in realist style. It is held by the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston,
Massachusetts.

One critical analysis of the painting commented on the size disparity between the canvas
inside the painting and the actual canvas, saying "Rembrandt's picture is small relative to its
subject, rendering something far grander than itself–a painting several times its own size.

Production Process
The process of creating an artwork does not necessarily follow a linear
progression. One of the things that one must accept is the fact that the arts have
an anarchic dimension to it, allowing it to fully harness its creative potential. The
very reason why different art styles, periods, and movements were made
possible, is because there was a form of flexibility given to artists in terms of how
to conceptualize and execute their ideas into reality. But this does not mean
there is no guiding principle that governs the general process of art production.
The process is essentially tripartite: (1) preproduction, (2) production, and (3)
postproduction. The artist always begins with an idea that he wants to express or
communicate with his audience. It may not necessarily be fully formulated, and
so some form of exposure, research, and other approaches may be explored to
get the idea long before actually making the artwork. This process is of course
the preproduction stage. The idea may take a while to form, or may come as
swift as a bolt of lightning
Some artists, however, birth their ideas when material manipulation is already underway.
This is when preproduction sometimes seep into the production stage. The execution of
the art may take a variety of forms such as painting,\ sculpture, tapestry, photograph, film,
a routine (dance), or a track or composition (music). Even tricky art forms such as
conceptual art, which purports to be solely concerned with the ideas take a variety of
formats, and may even be harder to pull off. Some artworks rely on a precise and skilled
execution, while others need only intuition and a kind of judiciousness in the manipulation
of material.
Gathering and sourcing the materials needed for the creation of the artwork is either
subsumed under preproduction or the production stage. Either way, materials form one of
the most crucial aspects that inform the direction, quality, and the final output itself. The
last stage is the most drawn-out, the postproduction. Once an artwork is finished, it will
then be decided on how it will be circulated not only in the art world, but the many
publics. If the artist decides that healone should see the work, then so be it. But most of
the time, if not always, the creation of the object requires that it be seen, heard, touched,
and/or experienced in a variety of ways.
Often, it enters into a new sphere, inside the domain of museums, galleries,
performance halls, theaters, and other art spaces where interaction can take
place. Take note, however, that approval, enjoyment, or pleasure are not the
sole reactions that an artist intends for his work, Sometimes, it is repulsion,
contempt, or even grief, which the artist hopes for. Either way, it is
intellectual and emotional reaction that is often the impetus for creating an
artwork. A message is almost always embedded in the artwork and it is the
hope of the artist that his audience comes across it, or takes from it
something that is his and his alone.
There are many aspects that go into postproduction. These may include
allowing the artwork to set, tweaking the artwork, preparing the artwork for
transport and display, and even the promotion and inclusion of the artwork in
publications or discussions.
