"Autumn Leaves" Coloured pencil on black paper.Having got diverted from the work in progress I have been showing on the blog, I have struggled to find something to post. I restarted my art classes in the last couple of weeks and found I needed to have a real tidy up in the studio as it was getting impossible to move. It's amazing what you find! This is a small work I did with coloured pencils some time in the last two years, which disappeared in the morass of unfinished work. I also found several other pieces, mostly unfinished which I must make a real effort to finish.
Are other artists like this or are they all disciplined and finish what they start before moving on to something else? I seem to be constantly moving from one work to another, finishing some , while losing others until sometimes months later they turn up.
I'm the same Phil, as I often change direction, resulting in unfinished work. It doesn't worry me. I don't want to be forced to do a particular drawing when my enthusiasm is waning.
ReplyDeleteI quite enjoy 'finding' unfinished work from time to time and then completing them.
It's all to do with maintaining motivation, and that's not an easy task!
