For the longest time, I've been asking any illustrator-mom friends, "How do you do it?" I've had lot's of tweets, facebook messages, emails, gtalks, and real-life conversations about it. Now that I'm in the position of being a stay-at-home mother of two small children, with very rare outside help I guess I'm going to answer the question (sort of) for those coming up behind me who might ask:
It's not the how, it's the why. You do it because you want to.
So I've scratched a few minutes adding up to perhaps an hour in the past week to create this.
It's not much. I tried a new surface and paint, which I've decided I don't like. I will keep at it, because I want to, but perhaps in my more usual style. But more importantly, I created this:
A big, messy, art, work space. Again. It feels nice.
Love that space! congrats on getting your creative juices going again!!!

ReplyDeleteI admire you because it is not easy to find the time and feel creative when you have a newborn and a toddler!!! Good for you sweetie! Keep at it. Little by little does the trick. Anything that can be for you, is a good idea to invest time on. :o)
