Art Hour begins
I have a problem, and I’m willing to admit it. The problem is motivation, and more importantly my complete lack of it.
It is not that I don’t have the tools to make wonderful stuff, as I do. Its not that I can’t learn how to do things, I can.
The problem is that I can never make myself put any effort into doing anything.
I want to become good at blender, but I spent less that 2 hours all of last year working on blender.
There is no way I’ll ever get good at blender, or for that matter anything, if I only put in 2 hrs effort a year.
So, based with this problem, I am trying a new approach.
The new approach is Just Do It. Kind of sounds like a Nike ad doesn’t it?
I have decided that every evening, at the same time if possible, I’m going to have an Art Hour. To start with Art Hour will probably just be 5 or 10 minutes to get myself into it, but I hope to work my way up to an hour (or more) every evening.
Yesterday evening I was tired, and couldn’t be bothered (same old excuse I used all last year), but I decided that Art Hour must go on. I sat and watched a few tutorials.
This evening Art Hour was delayed a little, but in the end I managed to get myself going, and I actually spent nearly an hour on it, which makes me half way through my progress for last year.
So, as my first post about Art Hour, I should put something up, so here is what I did this hour (year).
Just a simple Robot which wobbles across the screen. It was mostly taken from the animation I did last time, but now I have worked out how to add materials, colour, etc.
While I was playing with blender, my wife decided to get into Art Hour, and using a tablet and GIMP came up with this…
She says its not finished, but our Art Hour ended for the night 🙂
