I fail as an artist today
Have you ever had this problem? I'm sure people who have it together do not. Create a design, execute the design, get it out the door.
And I tried. I've been hammering pieces of silver to try and make something for weeks. When one doesn't work I go back to the drawing board and try again.
But my work time is less than 10 hours a week that I can guarantee. And other stuff comes up. I need to fill my table. I have smaller projects that I can get done quickly. I just fail.
I'm nothing but frustrated with myself. I think the version I'm currently working on would have worked. And if I'd pushed my time a little harder in the last two weeks I could have done it.
(I've had the stones forever, she just got tired of waiting and I seriously don't fault her)
First order of business change. If we discuss a design and you're sending me stones. I will only accept the original commission. Future pieces will have to wait until the first is done. Three major ideas arriving in one envelope is too much for my little tiny brain. I am all for saving on postage. I totally understand. Maybe I'll just offer to take on the postage cost if I have to send stuff back and you still want me to consider it later.
I'm hating my life just a little bit right now.
I hate being limited.
