I am very much aware it doesn't resemble the reference picture (Haserot). But I thought it may look good if you look at it from below. Thoughts?
Unfortunately I cannot do anything to it, there's charcoal all over + spray + varnish.
Made with acrylics and charcoal. The reference photo is Haserot, which I didn't nail it due to the wings not being higher than the head of the subject.
I have already applied varnish to it. I could add some black details on the upper part of the wings, with charcoal. Thoughts? Or should I leave it as it is?
De obicei, la concerte daca ajungi suficient de devreme la coada, poti sa fii in primul rand din fata scenei.
Vad ca la acest concert au fost si bilete cu early access (pe langa cele Snake Pit), insa..
- nu stiu cate bilete s-au vandut cu Early Access
- nu stiu aproximativ cate persoane ar putea fi pe un rand la concertele de pe Arena Nationala
Vreo idee?
How do I manage to get 8 hours+ of screen time? But literally never focusing on anything seriously and scrolling/ playing while I work, talk and eat.
I do get my work done, I do have other activities beside work (home workout sessions, painting, drawing, content creation for my IG account, community meetings, going out with friends, meditation) but I still use the phone this much.
Overall, my attention span is destroyed. An Illustration that took me like 10 days of "working" on it but I actually worked only 4 hours of drawing (the actual work). I haven't finished a book in a whole year. I can't read the news anymore. My mind is cluttered and I have thoughts 24/7. Even my dreams are about music and repetitive sounds I hear throughout the day.
I have identified what I feel when I use the phone: the feeling of missing out. I wonder if someone has dropped me a DM for a commission, what are my celebrity crushes up to, if my favorite artist has liked my post, if there's any print shop offering a discount, if there's a giveaway or open call I'm missing etc.
What I have tried:
- strictly blocking social media between my working hours (on my work laptop it's already restricted)
- fidget toys when I have the desire to scroll
- adding as many offline activities as I can, including physical activity (which i do almost daily)
- drawing random things when my mind feels too cluttered, just to relieve some stress
None of this has changed my habits.
Also, I don't plan to have 30 min screentime/ day because I do need social media for my art account and content creation apps. I also use apps to study German. Just to reduce the mental overload and the way it has ruined my attention span.
Thanks to anyone who can offer advice! ❤️
