I’m alone a lot during my usual day to day in order to achieve the artistic goals that I’ve set for myself. This unfortunately means I have a ton of time to dwell within my own head which…can be a bad thing. I’m usually a rather upbeat positive person but from time to time the freelance workload combined with never ending disappointment in my own work can start to make me unhappy. Luckily I found a cure! I just start up a painting that has nothing to do with anything. No larger projects, no freelance, no cares, no worries just a painting for medicinal purposes. I like to keep these very abstract and unstructured with little to no reference so I have less to think about. This started off as some abstract elements but now it’s a city…maybe. Still needs more time I think.

Greg Mitchell, Yay for productive procrastination!
