Friends, if I’m honest, I’ve been feeling crazy discouraged lately. Last week was just tough, but January has left me feeling just generally discouraged: my jewellery work has been at an almost stand-still for the entire month as I spend most of my time wrangling freelance design projects that have gone into hella overtime or that have changed creative direction so many times that it’s snuffed the creativity right out of them (design by committee = THE WORST...) I’ve been bogged down with so much admin work and financial planning that it’s felt like another job. There’s been some high points too (Lots of yoga! Eating well! Catching up on sleep! Returning to dance!) but the month came and went and I’m feeling a bit like I have nothing to show for it other than feeling a little less than myself. Anyway. Onwards I guess. Went for a lovely walk with @uncouthrooth this afternoon. Snow shadows are always the best. #endofrant #discouraged #snowshadows #creativelife #artistblock #designerproblems #oakville
