This is my first blog post! Yay! Hopefully it won't be my last. I have a great (not) habit of starting projects such as these and never coming back to them.
But then again, the fact that I keep starting these sorts of things is something in and of itself, isn't it? I just don't like quite how iterative my process of making is, or how inconsistent it is. It feels like I'm always wrestling with my creative mind, trying to wrangle it into whatever project I'm on at the moment.
Part of the philosophy of this website is to simply archive my life, my thoughts, and my creative endeavours. That's why I have a section on the home page of things I want to delete. I could have easily not included them, or not singled them out as work I'm not as proud of. But I think there's some value in sharing all of my work I'm willing to, even if it feels somewhat embarrassing. These are still things I put time, effort and care into, after all.
I know I enjoy seeing these kinds of insights into other artist's minds, and I can only hope someone else might value my work too. Maybe even if that person is just future me, looking back at another project I didn't stick with, and learning a little more about how to make the next one even better.
