Hello all!
This week was my first week working in freshwater-ecology,
and as I am now living at my workplace, my art situation has changed too.
It is a fascinating area of study, and having the opportunity to take part
in so many different research projects is wonderful.
However, as I am working a somewhat relentlessly full time, and especially now
at the beginning, while I am still learning, It's taking alot out of me.
Unfortunately, this means that I often find myself
devoid of creative energy (and time) at the end of the day.
Hopefully, as I integrate more into the position, I'll become more free and productive again,
but for now, I'll have to announce that my working speed for artwork will be
drastically slowed for the next few weeks, if not longer.
Also, I'd really like to fully appreciate and take in all that this job is offering me,
including meeting the people I'm living at the institute with, and the scientific practices involved.
I'm overjoyed to have this place, and want to make the most of it. :)
And hopefully, art will fit back into my routine soon.
Of course, artwork that is owed will be completed as soon as possible!

It may be hard, but I found that going to bed early and doing art BEFORE work actually works massively better for me to still feel engaged, creative and excited when doing art with a job! :D
