@Eyli: Do you have friends with kids? Nephews or nieces?

@Artloader: I don't know how you do it. But kids equals no 'me time'.

Heheh kids are great but they certainly don't make for a tranquil existence!

Haha, ja but it is worth it. At least that's what I think :p

But the energy you have to match them with? God it's draining..

Don't get me wrong, I love those two idiots!

@Eyli: Whenever my nephew and niece barges in, I have to really check myself before I lose it. I can't wait for them to reach a certain age when they know when to shut it! Haha!

It's really remarkable for art people to have kids.. How can you deal with all the craziness! On top of your art thing!

@Eyliana: Thanks :) Thats the plan :).

It's also about building a routine - everyone else around me has gotten used to me sitting down at 10pm and drawing and they're either asleep or reading or something.

Hehe, I guess. And hopefully we will see awesome figures from you at the end of the year ;)

Heheh - just gotta keep a balance I guess :)

Young kids must be pretty tiresome! I'm impressed that you find time to draw anyways

Just hearing "young family", makes me feel burned out as well

Got a fulltime job and a young family to enjoy.

@John: Well I guess I would get so tired that I give up on it altogether - as well as be next to no use to the people around me as well!

@Artloader: What happens when you burn out?

18 Jun 03:54

Eyliana

--

Nopes.. just take it slowly, draw everyday and be consistent does a lot more in the end

Artloader

Thanks Eyliana :) Yeah time is precious I guess. Still I have to focus on the long term - going mad for a few weeks and then burning out isn't gonna help me get where I want to be.

Eyliana

Looks like a good plan Artloader :) And yeah the constraint of 1h and being in bed in time sucks.. I know the problem :o

Watched your video on S.M.A.R.T. goals the other day Amit - useful thoughts - thanks for sharing - I'm thinking of putting together a goal around being able to draw and render the human figure better.
