Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
This is a good thread. My day starts at around 6 or 6.30. 4 hrs before the actual core hrs at work start. I can get some research if i want, but mainly is so that i can work without any distractions. My day can be pretty hectic, and most of the time i find that the solid 4 hrs of work that i get before the day start is one… -
Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
Well I haven't tried to pursue working professionally as of yet, I'm still just trying to better myself and my work before doing anything of that nature. I'm working a tech support job right now. Admittedly, it's tough to go to work, come home, do more work, sleep, repeat. Thankfully the "family/friends" thing is a little… -
Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
I try to do most my social stuff on the weekends and keep my evenings for my boyfriend and art stuffs. Come in to work at 8, eat lunch at my desk so I can leave around 4, hit the gym, do a few hours of art, eat, art some more. Lately I've been breaking the norm by going to the gun range once every 1-2 weeks, hiking (which… -

Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
I work 40 - 45 hours average. Then side projects when I come home or I keep researching stuff I came across work or play around with interesting problems. maybe 50 - 55 hours if that's counted in, but I like the fexibility of doing this extra work at home. That way I can take breaks, chat with my gf and do stuff at my own… -
Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
My routine is similar to a lot of people here; I do my 40 hours and I go home. Occasionally I will stay a little longer at work if I want/need to get a piece finished, but generally I work from 8.30ish to 5pm. If I was allowed to start and leave work earlier I definitely would, but the earliest I can finish is 5. I try and… -

"Sell the house." "Sell the Kids." "Find someone else." "I'm never coming home..." Oh sorry, virtual flashback there for a sec.... -
Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
This. If you're ever just tired of it, feeling burnt out, just leave it be for a while. Go do something completely unrelated. I'm not sure how the quote goes, something like "If you love it set it free, if it's meant to be, it will come back." -
Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
I'd rather dive around for an hour, come back and work an hour of inspired work than to sit in front of my computer and work 2 hours of uninspired work. Getting away from your art is sometimes the best thing you can do.
