So many questions. We may need some more information.

What kind of studio?
Are you going to create heat - space heater, propane, candles,
nothing, duct from the house?
What kind of comfort level are trying to provide?
Is this a temporary thing that you would like to be able to remove
if and when?
Do you own or rent?
Are you trying to stop sound?

A few thoughts:
Vapor barrier goes to the occupied side - if you use
fiberglass insulation with paper face, place the paper side to the
studio.
You could cover up the insulation with visqueen, cardboard
sheets, plywood, masonite, wafer board, drywall, rigid Styrofoam,
metal panels. Your peg board idea sounds good if you need a place
to hang up lots of tools, but is about the worst for stopping
infiltrated air.
You could cover the floor with a lot of things: roll out some
indoor/outdoor carpeting, go with carpet and padding, put down
rigid Styrofoam with laminated wood floor, rigid foam with a throw
rug, rigid foam with plywood. Cardboard sheets right on the
concrete are just not bad and you can always add a new layer to
increase R value/cleanliness/etc.
The attic needs the most insulation. You can use loose blow
in type insulation, just dump it on. You can use fiberglass
batts. The loose stuff 12" deep sounds about right, don't block
any roof or soffit vents, be careful where you walk.

my free-standing garage is separated into three walled-in rooms,
so to
speak, and i want to convert the middle room, which is 14 x 14,
into a
studio for my girlfriend.
The two inside walls (ie the walls b/ the two other rooms) are
wood
boards on the studio side and open 2x4s on the other side. if i
use
kraft-faced insulation, do i put the paper facing the studio
side with
the pink facing out into the two outer rooms?
also, what might you recommend me covering the insulaton with
in
those two walls? i was thinking that something like pegboard
might be
the cheapest and easiest for me, since i have no skills
whatsoever.
next, there's an attic over the ceiling and i don't use the
attic for
anything. can i just lay insulation down on the ceiling board?
finally, the room has a cement floor. what do you guys do
about that
in colder climates? I'm in rhode island. someone told me to
put down
sleepers, fill in with insulation, cover that with plywood, etc;
but
that seems a little much. so: how much cold will come in
through the
ground, do you think?
thanks!
