When I say "create art people feel compelled to share," I don't mean "try to understand others and please them." As an artist, it's essential to create for yourself or at least choose themes that genuinely interest you.
But why do some creations have more power than others? Here's a thought...

I've been a bit distracted lately. My project and Patreon are going great, growing one step at a time, but stability comes with too much order. One tends to lose motivation, hunger. It seems like a paradox: the pursuit is exciting, but once you get there, it becomes boring.

El Sol de México, Luis Miguel, is a Mexican singer very popular, specially back in the 80s when he was a teen-idol. Because I’ve been stuck with many songs from him but specially one called "La Incondicional", I thought it would be right just to make something fun of it, like if it was an anim...

Hi there, many artists are so focused on developing their own style that they completely avoid studying reality. If you have studied art in the traditional way, perhaps you practiced this a little bit, but most people, I think, have not covered this phase, and it might feel intimidating. But trus...

So I've been paying attention to what artists have been doing, and I've noticed how they reach greater audiences on IG. My approach is way simpler: I explore and share consistently over time, but I already have a platform I've built very early, and perhaps there are more effective ways to grow a ...

The straight up solution? Just don't think and keep making art, easy peasy. But because I know you can't stop thinking (as neither can I), here are some ways I deal with feeling stuck.
Artists get stuck in two extremes: working too hard and burning out, or barely working and stagnating. Bot...
