A little progress is still progress.

 Well, Im back with a small update. I had a busy week working my full time job. I did manage to get a sketch card done and a 8 by 10 charcoal commission done. I also filmed a video of a tour of my little art studio after working on it for 2 days to get it organized. My whole vibe has improved since I moved the things around. Now to get crackin' on new artwork!

 As the title states... a little progress is still progress, so don't beat yourself up when you don't get much done when working on your art. Everyday can't be perfect and just use that for a reason to push harder next time. Make the next day a challenge to get more artwork done than the day before. Those that have limited time due to work, family, school, or hitting the karaoke bar scene... set a time limit you have to reach before you can quit for the day. 

 Personally, I work better sitting up late at night when everyone else is asleep and it's quiet. I jam out to whatever music grabs me at the time and get in the zone. However, due to working night shift since last November, haven't been able to do that as much. I get about 2 nights a week to do that now. I mostly have to work on my art in the mornings when I come in from work. I tend to get sleepy quick and have fallen asleep at the desk. But like I said... a little progress is still progress.

 I was writing on my blog last week about taking the 100 day challenge of making my own personal comics. For me to do this, I will have to make some sacrifices. Let me explain a little more about what I mean. I work a full time job working 12 hour night shifts., I also do computer repair on the side. The computer work is kind of sporadic at times. I might go a couple of weeks with no work and then I get slammed with a bunch of jobs. I continue to do it because I used to have a computer repair shop and still have a lot of older clients that still call me up when they have PC issues. I make decent side money doing this but it takes away from my time to work on my comics. So when I say that I have to make sacrifices, I would have to give up taking a lot of the computer work to make time for my comics if I plan to work on them every day.

 I think the sacrifice is worth it. At some point in your life, you have to take time for your dreams or it will eat a hole in you. That much bottled up passion for something is such a waste of something great. You have to let the positive energies flow and push out the negative things that hold you back. With that being said, I plan to take the 100 days of making comics challenge starting sometime this August. It won't be easy but if it was, everyone would do it. I'll be back next Monday with another update. See ya!
