After some years, I am back to art full time. It is exciting and scary all at once, but I am taking it one step at a time, and then the next one.
On falling in love with practice

"Your job is to learn to work on your work." ~Art & Fear
Less and less I am fearing the blank page. I wake up in the morning thinking of the practice ahead. Drawing. Ideas. Hungry to hold my pencils I sit down and contemplate what practice is going to be the best for me in that particular moment.
Achieving realism: Accuracy and my frustrations
Thursday, March 7, 2019

Finally, I got myself together and humbly recorded something... that resembles of a video timelapse. I planned to do a voiceover too but it did't sound that great, editing my own voiceover was a little bit of torture (can't stand the sound of my own voice).
