_____ and sketching
As a sketcher for more than decades, I would like to share some of my thoughts and observations regarding drawing.
“When I am productive, I am no longer creative!”
Is productivity the enemy of creativity? As we know if we can live 80 years, we will have 4,000 weeks. As we ain’t robots, it’s impossible to keep the best performance throughout our life. We, of course, can reach the peak performance, and it’s okay our performance can drop to an unacceptable level.
Lessons on my recent long-term illness
I got serious flu which lasted for three weeks, and I was too ill to work. But without the long period of illness causing me to stay at home doing nothing, I will never learn something from my life.
On productivity and misery
And I wonder why we must always be productive, and why we must always be fast. Why can’t we slow down or even stop for a while? Why getting things done? Why do we have to feel miserable when things are falling behind?
Why are we reluctant to sketch (sometimes)? How can we cope with it?
In this article I am going to show why sometimes we are hesitant to sketch. Is hesitation or procrastination a bad thing? How can we deal with the situation?
