Fear

Telling from my recent performance in life, it might
actually be succeeding. It's so deep, that I can't even
feel it..... But it might be true.

I have some fucking problem with finishing projects. In
everything I do: quite proficient, quite fast, HARD TO
FINISH.

I really gotta fix this problem. In fact, I'm working on
freelance work right now, and it's "overdue" and also 5:30
AM and not done. Should finish in a few hours, though, but
still... It's fucked.

Time flies so fast, especially when I regularly sleep more
than 12~20 hours, easily.

I WON'T

FINISH THESE

PAINTINGS

fear or boredom or what... and I also got hours of music
that I personally think is really good, but I'm already
contemplating starting a new project, when I already have
85% done stuff in my lap. What is that shit? Pressure to
finish cuz of fear? FeEEeEEaaaAAaAaR?

thanks, but benjamin was an underpainting for a full-color
piece (but it could be a b/w with more refinement), hendrix
was supposed to have text in the right space "obligatory
hendrix portrait", and spongebob was to be more refined with
more trippy shit everywhere

you're very talented, it seems like you strive perfection
that is not always a functional behaviour. Your lack of
motivation trough your work may be a way to prove yourself
you're not devoid of creative spirit. You shall accept your
lack of perseverance as an act of rebellion towards the
commodification of fine arts.

Actually that sounds pretty good/accurate, hahaha...
Thanks. With regard to "perfection", yah-- I found out that
I could reduce the stress of it by intentionally leaving
mistakes in my paintings.

Hundreds of ideas written, dozens of concurrent projects,
very few completed-- and that's over a 10 year period.
Ironically, had I worked slowly and steadily, everything
would be finished by now (as opposed to cramming and
actually trying to finish!). IiiIIiironic.

My solution was/is to care less about what I care about and
more about completion (for money, especially), but if you
have another solution... lemme know! Thanks. *50cents*

Buy a hat and put it on when you think you MUST complete
something and you don't want to. That way you diverge your
feelings of being constricted to do something against your
will by transfering that unpleasing perception to a physical
object. That might or might not work but we need empirical
evidence to validate this approach.

I'm being an unorthodox scientific researcher. That is what
you buy for 50c.

That's actually pretty good. I was thinking of something
similar coincidentally... wearing a beanie when working at
home. But it was more that I felt that I needed to keep my
ears warm, and psychologically, I thought it helped to wear
a uniform/costume to put me in the mindset.

Thanks.
