    A sculptor's journey towards the Fastlane

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Hi! About 35-37 hours of work this week, but it doesn't feel like so. A lot of energy lost in insignificant things, quick chores ended up taking way too long to complete, which left me with an overall sense of unaccomplishment. Downloaded a dating app and that's been probably a bad decision...

    Hi! 39 hours of work this week, spent finishing a $700 gig (20 more dragon figures), on the goat (the inside of the head is sanded and I've started applying the resin to it), and working on the apartment (more panel removing, wall scraping and helping the previous owners sort stuff out. They've...

    Hi! Last week was a good one. About 61 hours of productive work: studying investments, the actual purchase of the apartment, started working on it, and also good amount of work on the goat sculpture and the other commissions. This week hasn't been as good, though: a strong migraine attack...

    Hey MJ & co. Why Is "Everyone Doing It" On NFTs? Is It The Real Deal?

    @MaxKhalus Here's an article that might help you understand value in contemporary art. It goes way back to Duchamp's fountain in the 1900s, when computers didn't exist (but digital reproductibility is an important concept in contemporary art since the 60s) . From a logical/productive point of...

    Hi! Another Sunday here. About 40-45 hours of work, lots of stressful stuff going on, but it's been overall a good week, without migraines, deppressive thougts or anxiety attacks. I've also got myself from 86,7kg to 83,9, and got up early on 6 days out of 7. Finally was able to work on the...

    Hi! 35 hr work week. Thankfully this week has been much better than previous. At last the Kickstarter sets are fully finished and sent to the backers, so now the only big pending project is the goat. A mural I was commissioned to do has ben delayed due to weather, so I've had a calmer week...

    Hi :) no recap last week so, 34hrs of work last week and 27 this one. I'm feeling very tired and unable to concentrate during the day. Not much else to say, really. I find everything overwhelming, like I'm just waiting for my "sentence" to end. Just when I enter the bed and turn the lights off...

    Feeling stuck

    MINDSET RANT 
    That's it. I think this fear of being unprepared has a lot to do with perfectionism and ultimately fear of the unknown, and the whole "waiting for all the traffic lights to be green before starting the car". I suffer it a lot too. Try to tackle it as straight as possible, take action and get...

    Hi! Not much to say this week. About 28-29 hours of work. 3 Days finishing and sending two more Tower packages (now there are just two remaining!), and the rest casting the remaining 17 dragon figures. Also worked a bit on the Figurativas sculpture and spent a morning buying various materials I...

    Hi! 34 hours of work this week. Finished a couple pending things: some more affordable sculpture designs for the whiskey company project that was cancelled, also fixed and repackaged one of the Kickstarter shippings that had broken, and spent a full day tidying up my workshop to avoid...

    Not much to say this week. about 45 hr of work, prepared a couple packages (a full day spent on each) and sent one of them to Canada (hope customs won't put any problem with it), worked on the goat another day, and spent five evenings and a full day working on a sculpture for the Figurativas art...

    Another week, another recap post. 25 hours worked this week. I managed to do the first two shippings to the backers, but preparing the next ones overwhelmed me. I also didn't have the strength to meet any friends or exercise, and I was eating like 3 bowls of cereal a day to calm the anxiety...

    I have similar problems. Here are a few things that work for me: - Keep track of exactly how many hours are you putting into work/your business project. That helps you get a wider view of things. It's not the same "i''m not taking action" but you're working 40hrs at a day job and taking care...

    Hi! No post last week. I didn't have an especially good week. Some social events scheduled that generated me some anxiety, and I was very out of focus. Got to play Minecraft again with no self-control, so I ended up wasting most of the week and just working for ten hours total or so. This...

    Hi! 37 hours of work this week. Kickstarter pieces are all finished! Maybe I'll do some super small corrections, but they're 99% finished. So now I just need to find a good way of packaging them to avoid damage. I'm thinking wrapping them in bubble wrap and putting them in some hard plastic...

    Hi! About 35 h of work. A small 3 day teaching substitution at the high school, that also triggered a 2 day long anxiety attack. I've been having palpitations during last months at random times, especially in the evenings, on the days I feel like I've not worked enough. Last 2 weeks and my...

    Hi! Not much else to share, still everything's going good! More nervous about the home purchase as it gets closer. I've kept working on the alien sculpture for the whiskey company, polishing the miniatures from the Tower project, and worked a bit on the goat sculpture. And I've been learning A...

    Hi everyone!!! A very busy and productive week, lots of good things have happened. 1. A big gig with a whiskey company (sculpture stands for a limited edition). I was contacted by the father of a friend on Monday, and on Friday I had the project ready. The whiskey company loved the designs. So...
