Overthinking

I create a lot of art that never sees the light of day, photos on walks, illustrations late at night, story ideas jotted in notebooks. I keep them locked away mostly because I feel like I have to do some grand reveal just to get folks to take a look. Prepare the splash image, export to different formats for each social platform, come up with keywords, don’t forget the engaging copy!

But recently, I’ve started to fall back in love with the idea of creating for the sake of my sanity. And this website, though it was originally intended for work, is a great place for a digital journal of my artistic thoughts.

A light pole tries in vain to hold back nature as a bird defies its authority.

So if you’ve ever wanted to take a peek at how I see the world, the things that catch my eye, the thoughts going through my head as I snap a photo, the hopes that may or may not pan out; well then, this blog will be a glimpse into chaotic mess I call a mind.

Dreaming of the open road.

Not sure if I’ll keep this up or not … but I’d like to.
