I recently made the decision to leave the studio I was renting for the last 4.5 years, and move my practice back home.
While I loved the energy of my old studio and having the opportunity to meet so many lovely people at open houses, I came to realize that I thrive best in quiet, intimate spaces where I can focus deeply on my craft.
I’m trying to make it a habit to attend figure drawing groups so I don’t spiral into absolute hermitude, and I’m going to have to make an effort to remember that fresh air and other people are just as important as getting my brush strokes just right!
It’s been a refreshing change of pace getting my little corner just right and getting valuable feedback from my cats while I work. Here’s to reassessing and listening to what your gut tells you.
