Observation: Design?

By September 30, 2008 No Comments

Tonight was interesting.  I felt like I didn’t know what to do, but it was going to be artistic.  Sure I could have worked on my dino sculpture, posed tutorials, refined my ‘damaged’ entry but I had a feeling that something was missing from within.  I found a photo of some old autos and thought I’d do a focused study to get my hand back at the environment paints.  During, the lacking feeling persisted as if my worth or motivation was in question.  My mind was thinking damn hard.

After warming up into it, an un-pin-pointable feeling took me over.  I realized at that moment that creative process flows.  Barriers limiting such potential are the root of creative stagnation.  My initial sluggishness wore out as the logic was lessened by that right brain momentum!  I could feel it pour in as I was reminded of how awesome it feels to scribble and combine different sources.

As some relationship advisors recommend, less thought is best.  Sitting down to work on a piece must have silence.  Thought and planning is great for placement and goals, but let the “process” flow and happiness will find you no matter what you’re working on! 

Laters,
Matt
