Am I procrastinating, again?
| Posted on April 7, 2008 at 8:47 PM |
I?ve had plenty of thoughts, and not much time, or not enough time. Actually, I suppose I could have made time, and then didn?t!
The same with art and design! I am really trying hard to make time and get my ideas down on paper, so I sketch anywhere I can, on the train, in one of many notebooks, and then one day checkout all my sketches and ideas, then decide which ones I?ll draw again and complete. Will I finish this drawing using oil paint, pen, colour pencils, watercolour, or the computer?
Is, sitting and thinking about which medium to use, procrastinating?
Is it a bad idea to procrastinate?
I know eventually, I will make up my mind, and probably draw the same thing in different mediums. I could, cut out the thinking part of it, and just do it!
...nah!
After a lot of thinking, I?ve come to the conclusion that, some kind of thinking can be useful in the process of creating art, especially a big collection of art! It?s not a good idea to rush into things without "some kind of thinking", after all, life is about the choices you make!
This brings me to the idea I came up with for my next solo art exhibition, which will take place in December 08, at the Soho Art Gallery in Osaka, near Tanimachi9chome.
Have an awesome day!
