I have learned that I am only doing real artwork about 1/4 of my time, with the rest going to prep work, set-up, clean-up, and teardown. With that in mind, I find it understandable to be impatient and excited to get at it. I do the same thing to one extent or another on probably every art project i start, it keeps things exciting
I had a large shop once and it looked like a hospital room. I thought I’d be so efficient in that space because I had so much room. But I was a slave to it. I feel less like a slave in my at home shop but I regret not taking some time to prepping my “ Operating Room” This comes down to simply establishing a strategy for the “Operation” Part of that gets in the way of raw creating, but creating in a space that bothers me is counterproductive to a degree. So, as I balance all this, I’m happy with striving to at least improve my practice.
Dope video, you two!
