JOURNALS

Tuesday was quite the design-driven affair. My day was primarily focused on the t-shirt design. It's amazing how a seemingly simple task can keep you occupied for a good chunk of the day. I was still deeply into working on it by mid-afternoon and then moved on to the lettering part, which I found just as engaging.

The whole design process is a pretty immersive experience, where time just seems to slip away. There's something both satisfying and mildly nerve-wracking about making sure every detail is just right. It's like creating a tiny piece of art that someone might end up wearing. Having a hand in something like that makes me feel quite connected to the project.

Having spent the day in the studio, I didn't manage to get started on the administrative tasks I'd hoped to tackle. They are still lined up, patiently waiting for my attention. Kitty's keeping tabs on those, of course, so I’ll get there. For now, my focus remains on ensuring quality and creativity, rather than getting bogged down in the admin side of things.

With the specifics of today’s project so vivid in my mind, it becomes apparent how much I enjoy diving into my art projects. It’s always about finding that balance between designing something meaningful and ensuring it aligns with the intended purpose. Sometimes it’s easy to overlook the process in favour of jumping straight to the outcome. But today, it’s all about relishing that creative journey and ensuring every part of it is worthwhile in its own right.

So, while the numbers and figures await, the heart of my day remained firmly lodged in the realm of creativity. Tomorrow, I’ll probably need to shift gears a little to catch up on the tasks I've left aside. But for now, I’m content with where the day’s work has led me.
