TICKING CLOCK
#21
I think these short burst, study attack phases are a result of fear. Fear of failing and making a sub par painting. It's a comfort zone that can suck you dry and give little in return. We always want to make something pretty even if it means forsaking actual progress. Pictures and things that are already there laid out before us are easy to imitate and polish up nice and impressive for the online community's praise.

I think we have to stop and ask ourselves more often WHO we are doing a particular thing for, and many of us will find most of what we do is for everyone but ourselves. Imagine you were cast away on an island with no one to show your work to. Would you still be doing the same shit your doing now? I think not. I believe it is essential to explore what you do and don't want out of a thing.

Be true to yourself first and foremost. In studies and personal work. That's where you find a balance I think.

Thanks Caisne for starting this thread. A lot of good stuff in here.
