Quarantine was a Time for Personal Growth

I feel like a chicken running around with out his head lately, but in a good way.

I caught myself getting comfortable and doing the daily Instagram edit and calling it a day. It became less about art and more about checking a box everyday.

Dont get me wrong, I love my Instagram edits and its not like I was phoning them in, its just… I don’t like to stay in one lane for too long..

So yeah I noticed I haven’t been pushing myself like I used to.

So a while back I decided to to set some other daily boxes I needed to check, I decided I would try to learn something new everyday. I have been watching at least one tutorial a day to add tricks to my arsenal when it comes to creating with adobe.

Ive been getting back into physical art again, I forgot how awesome it is to create a piece in the real world with your hands… again im not knocking the digital art world, just expressing how I love all things art, and for a time it seemed like I forgot that.

So yeah, I’ve been pushing hard to try new things, new mediums, new techniques, etc… im learning new software, programs, apps, you name it, im learning 3d which is really pushing my art to the next level and giving me a new wave of creativity to work with, which im super excited for…

With all this, im jumping into the NFT scene, launching my first collection, “instaBABES”, which are presented as trading cards, many more collections and NFTs are coming, it takes a bit on my end to get them made, uploaded and minted, but I have streamlined the process quite a bit, so they should be dropping consistently, keep an eye out, I will create a section for them here on the site…

Its not all been art related, I been pushing to reading more and writing more which im excited about, I been researching more, learn about new topics, learn new words, anything and everything…

I have been learning more about the stock market, crypto currency which is super exciting, but also makes me mad that I haven’t been doing this for years as I have already made some nice change on the market. But oh well, no point in dwelling on the past, lets just make sure to get it today and tomorrow.

So yeah, be a student of life, were all still in school, make sure to catch your self when your getting to comfortable and push yourself to evolve, to advance in all aspects of life, there’s not much better things you can do for yourself, other than health things…

Its just crazy to look back and see all the things I’ve learned and improved on in such a short amount of time, its bittersweet, cuz it makes you feel like you’ve wasted time, but you cant look at it like that, and I know that’s easier said than done, but even that “wasted time” can be super beneficial in retrospect..

So it feels great with all this personal growth going on, but it doesn’t come without its negatives, at least for me, I love having all this stuff going on and the benefits of such things, but my anxiety does not lol, hence the feeling of running around like a chicken without his head.

I kinda wanna start on some alpha brain, don’t you just wish that limitless pill was real, that shit be dope.. abrupt end of blog
