Obsessive

3 Comments

[Sent out ear­lier today in the news­let­ter etc.]

I’ve always had an obses­sive qua­lity, espe­cially about my work.

I guess you need that, if you’re going to draw as many dra­wings as I have.

Or if you’re going to build a great busi­ness or long-term pro­ject or whatever.

I like the idea of this print, han­ging up in someone’s office, remin­ding him or her about why they work dif­fe­rently than every­body else.

Why they get to see and do the stuff every­body else does not.
And why, deep down inside, it’ll pay off one day.

Hell, yeah…

   Some­ti­mes I worry that I obsess too much about a pixel being the wrong color, a line being the wrong thick­ness, all the little details that, to me, ought to be fixed. I think I’m going to make this dra­wing my “cube gre­nade.” Because the gra­dients have to match, darnit!

   SO nee­ded to hear this today. My obses­sion? Sha­ring with 90+ tee­na­gers the RUSH I get from art-making in five days a week for ele­ven hours on conc­rete floors. Even though I have to put up with the pencil-pushing gar­bage from the i-need-to-make-myself-a-job-so-i’m-going-to-torture-teachers-idiots-in-suits to make it hap­pen. The stu­dents STILL get the pas­sion, and thank me for it by making beauty…for 27 years.
   Hea­ven, Yeah!
