Guilty Pleasures

Sep 19

We all have things that we love to partake in but feel a little silly doing. As I take on more paid work and learning opportunities that include "design briefs" in which the art I am making is highly structured, I am finding that my guilty pleasures around making art involve not doing any of the above.

The other day a friend posted the most beautiful photo of Alaska on their Instagram, and I could not help myself. I put down all the other projects I was "supposed" to be doing and painted it.

And you know what? It's my new favorite painting. I love it. I love how I captured the light on the snow at the top of the mountain. I love when the magic bit of making art shows up!

My other guilty pleasures include potato chips and British Victorian Era murder mysteries on audiobook.

What are your guilty pleasures, please share in the comments below.
