RE: A Lots Changed Since Then

in #artzone6 years ago

Ahhh yeah! Another Sweed sighting, how’s it goin Rob? I know my way around a carpenters pencil, sir, no problems there, and a razor knife is better known as a pencil sharpener.

I sure do appreciate your encouragement, you’d be surprised how many people have said practically the same thing.. “if I could draw, I would..” and I don’t know what it is—I just can’t being myself to do it. I blame it on boredom, I actually get tired, or something else like I don’t have time. But, this is Sweed, get real, maybe the man has a solution.

It may be because I’m too critical on myself, I don’t know. But everything always has to be perfect. So, when I’m drawing, it’s practically impossible to get everything perfect which means I’m driving myself crazy and it makes me tired. I instantly begin yawning and I need to do something like eat peanuts to stay awake. Ed Privat told me he thinks it’s because I’m not having to apply much effort because it’s just a gift therefor I get bored with it.

Any suggestions? Because there’s one more person I promised I’d draw, Pura Vida, and to be honest, I can’t wait to get it over with so I don’t have to draw anymore.

I hope you have a great weekend. It sure is nice hearing from you again, can you tell I noticed your absence? 😉

Thanks for stopping by @thebigsweed.

I hear you on the perfection end, I have a saying that I try to apply to everything I do . "It won't get by if it ain't GI. I think the more talented a person is in any area the higher they set the bar. Keep up the wonderful drawings, and if a sketch of #puravidaville is your last one for a while, I am sure it will prove to be as insane as the one of #edprivat. Being that we are both retired, I do everything with the term hobbitational in mind, once it becomes a chore I put it down and address it later, sometimes not returning to the project for weeks.
Great to be back in your company.
