Gifts of Process

Hello and how do you do, how does so much time pass?

I just (finally) finished an animation diy cooking video
I have been working on for way longer than I believed it would take.  Finishing was a bit anti-climatic, as though I thought there would be fireworks and a parade... whoooooo hoooopty dooooooo its done!
Nope, didnt happen, though it does feel good to have finished it.... Id like to get to posting one a week.

There has been allot of changes this year, most I didn't choose, they got dumped on me like the ice water challenge with no warning.... It's been hard and sometimes it seems the pain will suffocate me, then I force myself to make something and am reminded agony squeezed through creativity can sparkle beautifully.  


Art is an a magical, healing filter to process what feels like the end of it all, realizing there's way more beauty inside than we can see in process sometimes.  Diving into the zone of creating allows all of this to happen within a safe, surreal, beautiful world of own making.

Along with the incredible gifts, its true, being an artist is rarely a sound economic choice, artists lives are often far richer than the accompanying pockets much of the time. It's hard for sure though I don't want to sell those gifts of process for trinkets, not again anyway.


Show and Tell time :)...... what do you do to find peace In your process making music out of the noise?
