Just wanted to throw up a post as I am trying to do this more regularly, even if it is not much of a post.
This are still status quo as I have had no time to do anything as of late just as always over the last couple of years. At some point I am going to get my shit together and workout a good enough schedule to get time to do my art as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is where I run into the issue, I get up 5 days a week at 3:15AM, then get ready for work over the next hour, 4:15AM to 5AM is driving to work, then I arrive at work, and I am here till 3PM, once done here off to the gym, which is right by the office thank goodness, just a 5 min drive. Then spend about an hour at the gym, drive home from 4ish to around 5ish depending on traffic. Once I get home it is time to start getting things ready for going to work the next day all over again as well as getting ready to eat dinner and shower. Basically once I get done with all of this it is about 630PM and I just want to chill out and relax, because I have to start getting things ready for bed by around 815PM or so, though I should be starting at 8 so that I can go to bed earlier so I have some time to read before going to sleep and that is part of the future plan as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So at some point I have to just suck it up and use that hour and a half to create art at least a couple of days a week and on a couple of other days to get in some drawing practice so that I can achieve the goals I want to achieve before the end of this year otherwise I am not going to get that shit done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Someday it would be great if I could just sell enough art every month to make that my full time job, not sure if that will ever happen at this point but it would surely be nice. But it can\u2019t happen if I don\u2019t spend the time creating new art on a weekly basis. So going to have to break down and get this shit rolling next week and use up some of that free time to create stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well this will be if for now.
Later
