I’ve always felt a little bad when I see artists with perfectly clean palettes. To me, that’s where some of the real…

6 Paintings In 7 Days Day 1
https://youtu.be/VUBjfkM_P9k Day 1. They say art is not competitive. But, that doesn’t mean it can’t be. This past year each month I challenge myself to a crunch. In game development that is when you knuckle down, you don’t sleep and you just get it done. For my employers I will crunch for a…
