(I’d like to just mention that “Simplicity and clarity should be your theme in dress” is more “incredibly dry life advice” than “mystic fortune”. If this whole art thing never pans out, I know that I would have some talent as a fortune cookie writer.)
At any rate, the more hectic my job gets, the more hectic my sketchbook work becomes. Sometimes the only way I can unwind after work is grabbing a drink at a bar and frenetically doodling, while enduring the socialite wildlife and overhearing terrible first dates. Although I do most of my art-work at home, sometimes the couch sucks me in an Netflix (or more recently, a modded Wii, thx MW) takes over and I’m checked out for the night - so taking a rest stop with my sketchbook can be a good way to unwind from how stressful my job-work can get.
Working through some designs and some half-assed ideas for bigger paintings. Constantly wishing I had a better hand for script & calligraphy (have you seen this guy’s work? Impeccable!) , although I’m getting much better at it. So on and so forth.
