I'm often asked if I edit my photos and I always answer "absolutely ". Adjustments need to be made for any image to reach that difference between capture and vision. Here is a prime example between what the camera sees vs what my mind sees and it's my job to take what the camera captures and get a print that most closely matches what I saw in my minds eye. This was taken Friday evening when my wife @jamieraptor and I made a spontaneous afternoon trip to take advantage of the cloudy skies in #sedona and #photograph the #sevensacredpools along #soldierspasstrail #makingartwork #instagramaz #igersarizona #arizonahiking #exploreaz #igersaz #photographerslife📷 #arizonahighways #hikeaz #azhiking #visitarizona #instagramaz #igsouthwest #instaart #instaartwork #contemporaryart #fineartphotography #artist #azartist #hikingbangers #visitarizona #outdoortones #wonderoutdoors #earth_shots #stayandwander #thomaswatkinsfineart (at Soldiers Pass Trail, Sedona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfRnK1Kl0EX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I was ready to bail on this piece (Working Title: Meowdy! …or possibly Kitty Up). It doesn't move me closer to starting my next comic and it's not in the genre of most of my work (Dark Fantasy/Horror).

But, I haven't been producing finished artwork at a steady pace and I was never the most polished artist in the first place. Taking a piece from sketch to finish is a necessary skill and it's one I need to hone, so I'm keep at it.

This session I completed a color thumbnail, so that's some progress.

How do I stay motivated to make art? That's easy. Art makes me happy. Making art isn't a burden for me. It's a relief from my burdens. It's an escape and my happy place.

Even when it's really really hard, it's not like backbreaking labor. It's like playing a really fun video game on hard.

If staying motivated to make art is challenging for you, maybe making art isn't for you. No one says you HAVE to make art. OR. It could be that you're just making the WRONG art. The wrong subject matter or the wrong medium.

Try leaning into your joy.

One of the fun things about open studios is talking to visitors about my art! One dad came in with his daughter, who just walked around looking at all my pieces saying "I love your art". I explained how I came to be creating my different pieces of art, and somehow we got to the fact that I ditched or reworked a lot of my art and they were only seeing the successful pieces. I ended up showing them my most recent failure, and they insisted it had promise, so now I'm thinking of taking it a little further. I'm not showing you what it looks like now, but will if I make something of it!⁠ ⁠ #makingartwork #abstractart #process #art #contemporary #artstudio #inspiration #artwork #design #love #artist #houston #silverstreetstudios (at Silver Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKKmuWbH-tO/?igshid=n0gaoha0u64g

Several of you have asked me questions about ‘Making Art Work.’ It’s so good, I’m taking this art business course again with my artist friend @melissajanehyatt as my accountability partner. The class is offered by @emily_jeffords and is so full of information, that it’s valuable the second time. The added bonus of guest expert @laurieanneart along with three others, makes it all the better. I’ve watched her videos on Skillshare and love her work. Take a look at the link in my profile for more details as to what the course covers. #doitfortheprocess #makingartwork #artbusiness #artbusinesslife #artbiz https://www.instagram.com/p/B87nuOvJkC_/?igshid=1w1235e9fcgcp
