Do your art May 5, 2009

I love the slogan from Hugh Macleod - “Create or die.”  So simple, but so hard for me to live up to.  The art of life, that’s my blog.  I am best at art when I have clear stretches of time to do art, like taking a few months off to go to Paris.  But what about when you go back to work?  

When you start a new job there is the inevitable exhaustion from trying to get up to speed, learn names, culture, and processes… and then you try to apply  the information.  How long can I use this excuse for not doing my own art?  It’s been 3 months and I love my new job and my new company and all the opportunities.  Gosh – I’m almost envious of myself working on video games at Lucasfilm!  I just need to figure out how to slip a little creative time for me.
