OHHH The life of an artist.
Man.
Sometimes it's like living a mood swing.
The studio has been a bit crazy. We've had everything from arguments with management to workshops to amazing art being created. We're booking in so many musicians and also headshots and also children's portraits.
And it's Creative July.
Where I am supposed to create some fine art every single day.
Which means this is where my brain goes. I want to wake up and create. I want to use my camera, my paint brushes, my sewing needles, my chemistry. I want to create. I want to make a mess.
But the messes don't always pay the bills.
So it means a lot of the time, I'm creating ads. I'm posting and marketing and adding events and doing all of the business things. And at the end of all of that, the creative parts have given up and gone to sleep.
Social media is such a weird thing for an artist.
It appears that if we aren't posting work, that we aren't working.
That simply isn't the case. Sometimes, our clients don't want to be posted. This is especially true with children or boudoir. And if they say no, it's a no. I'm not one to sneak around and blur out their eyes just so I can post something.
Or....if we're doing business things, it's hard to post it all. Or editing.
And then I completely forget the darned BLOG.
Because in this day and age, we need to be advertisers and content creators and writers and also artists. So I'm really trying here to remember to blog!
So if you think of me, remind me. "Hey Robin....go write a blog, yo!"
And even better? Come see me. Let's make some art. Let's do something fun. Let's decorate your home. Let's DO THE COOL STUFF.
Coz I'd wayyy rather be busy doing photo sessions than sitting here blogging. So can we do that? And if we can't, just remind me....to blog. HAHA
And I'll try and find interesting things to blog about. DEAL????
So the goal shall be...Flyhippie Friday blog. This might even work better as a video. haha....don't be surprised if I make some video and talk rather than write. I am who I am, ya dig?
