Watching The Clock
At some point in our lives, most of us have been in a job where we watch the clock. How about you?
Although I’ve been in this situation mostly when working corporate jobs, since I’ve embraced my true passion as a fine artist, I find it the exact opposite.
When I am creating, usually I forget to check the clock, often losing track of time, even forgetting to eat until I’m absolutely starving.
When I’m in this space, my mindset shifts to a meditative type of state. It’s a flow or a zone my state of mind enters and I prefer avoiding disrupting it. Therefore when I properly prepare, I’ll have snacks and protein drinks around to keep me fuelled.
The above photo is of me creating my 1st memorial painting commission over the summer. You can read more about it here. https://tinasfinearts.com/new-memorial-paintings/
My conclusion is that if you’re doing what you truly love you will enjoy it so much that you won’t care what time it is.
Currently, I’ve had some major personal business to deal with, following a slower schedule over the summer, but will be returning to my painting after today. I look forward to sharing updates with you soon.
Wishing you all the best.
