Let’s try this again. I gotta get away from instagram.

Playing with rectangles! This is a photo i shot at a doctors office.

I’ve been struggling with creative burnout. It’s impacted my photographic work and I’m now working to heal that. As burnout happens, we creatives have to get back to basics if we want to heal.

Time to start something new. I’m tired of sitting around, waiting for my chance.

As Gorilla Biscuits once said: “Procrastinate it can wait, I put it off. Let's start today”

#punksky #creatives #starttoday
What do I do now? Any thoughts?

One step forward, five steps back. Ah, the life as a freelancer.

I haven’t been posting as much as I’d like, but things have been…rocky.

If anyone knows of a Photo project needing shot, a story to be told, images processed, or designs needing laid out; Get at me!

Oh no, it’s BogCat! I heard his owner is SwampThing.
And with this book, it begins!

I’m hoping to make great strides towards healing creative burn out and back to making great work that matters.

My study plan on becoming an Art Director starts with “Hey Whipple, Squeeze this.” It’s required reading.

As a creative, I hate AI art. As a person with ADHD, I absolutely love ChatGPT. It helps me break down tasks, gather my thoughts, and gives me a way to plan things out.

Let’s keep AI out of the art studios and put it in the admin role.

Went to art school so i could find myself, a voice and master the creative process.

now I tweak the color of clothing so the flat matches the on model shot.

If only someone had told me that color corrections contained this much math…

I feel like today is one of those “Jesus take the wheel” kinda days. But he’s passed out in the backseat and we are flying toward oblivion.

Any of my fellow remote creatives going from meeting to meeting while:

• fixing your kids toys
• making chocolate milk
• getting goldfish crackers
• building legos for stuffies

All while trying to take notes and like function?

Asking for a friend.

Now? I’m proud of it.
Looking back, they were all solid ideas to help both our customers and the bottom line.

CDs and ADs don’t have all the answers. It takes a village to grow and stay afloat. Great ideas come from everywhere. Stay humble, keep thinking.

They were about vendors to attract, ideas on presentation, advertising, the works.

Later, I pitched a new shopping experience for the app.

….Crickets.

After that, I was jokingly referred to as “the ideas guy.”

It stung. I was reduced to a joke by the creative leaders and my peers.
Story time!

I used to be a Lead Retoucher at a big e-com company. Before the pandemic, sales were down. So a VP called a Creative leadership meeting to see what ideas could save us.

I pitched 5 ideas. Rattled them off at blazing speed. Ready to impress my peers and stand proud as a leader.
Interested? Let me know and follow along! Im not sure if this will go anywhere…But I’m jazzed to make stuff about the topics I love.

Trying to figure out if anyone would be into content around:

• punk rock parenting
• creative career pivots
• and rating kids snacks based on my stress level.

Basically, I’m looking to share my experiences as a neuro-spicy, DIY, punk loving dad while trying to grow my creative skillsets.
Showing up to my kids pre-k school pick up blasting the Aquabats and vibing with fidget toys?

That’s me espresso.
