>> having space to sit and work is one of the major problems people face, <<

Workspace is often a limitation, especially when so many people are already rent-burdened.

>> especially when the finished product might need to sit and dry out (anything involving paint or resin for example) and it is taking up the dining table.<<

One option is a drying fan or oven -- various models are offered for art purposes.

Drying racks are available for flat types of artwork, so you can stack things vertically with a minimum of floorspace.

Another way is to put things up overhead, like on top of bookcases or cabinets.
