The one problem that I can’t quite fix.

One of the most common struggles I hear from people in this community is a lack of consistency. People have a tough time making time for their art and letting creativity be a regular part of their lives. It’s hard, when you have a life full of work, family, friends, domestic chores, and so much more, to squeeze in those habits and routines that mean so much. It’s interesting to see how art, expression, and creativity are the first to get tossed overboard when life gets hectic. And it always gets hectic, doesn’t it? So, how do you find consistency? How do you nail down those slippery things that you can’t quite get your hands around? I gotta be honest with you… I don’t know. I fight this battle every damn day. And after all these years, I still feel like Sysophis, endlessly pushing the boulder up a hill only to watch it roll right back down. But we have to keep trying. Keep fighting. Keep pushing the boulder up again and again. Because giving up isn’t an option. My lack of consistency in my life has led to plenty of strife – it’s put me on my back foot, made me feel like a failure, and nearly killed this whole business countless times. But I’m not going to let that stop me from giving another push. You never know when this one will be THE one – the point where you crest a plateau, a point of rest and celebration, the new bottom of your hill. Progress is slow and grueling, but we must find a way to fall in love with the process because to give up is to give up on life.

Sometimes, while I’m typing away in my art studio or casually swapping out camera lenses, I get hit with it – the sudden realization that this is my life. I get to do this for a living; making art, chasing my passions, and teaching the most incredible community of people on the internet. What on earth led me here? There are a few different factors that influenced this weird, colorful career path, but I can point to one in particular that played a big part: lettering. Surprising, huh? It...
Do you ever sit down to paint and feel immense pressure to make this piece different? Make it mean something? Make it special somehow? I recently discovered a funny little mindset that steered my artistic growth – and hindered it in major ways. I realized that when I sat down to create, I felt like I needed to come up with everything right then and there. The concept. The colors. The composition. Every single thing had to be fresh right now if I wanted to make a nice painting. But the other...
