I am…burned out!

thirdchildart:

Listen, been trying to pretend this WHOLE YEAR that this isn’t the case, and unfortunately I gotta face the music. Life is kickin’ my butt.

A year ago, I took a month off from Dreamworks and did nothing but TAZ trailer work for 16+ hours a day. I loved it, the project was amazing and the best thing I’ve ever helmed up, but I moved straight from that into my very intense and incredible DREAM JOB of being a full time movie storyboard artist!

Work is going great but my personal projects are a huge struggle.  I’ve been chipping away at the HnP book, and a couple fanart storyboards (which y’all have seen peeks of) and I’ve also pitched 15 tv shows/movies to executives this year (which y’all cannot see).  I’ve been disappointed with my last 5 Hades and Persephone pages, and rather than try to shove the book out NO MATTER WHAT I want to take my time and craft it. 

I gotta stop. I GOTTA slow down.  Because now I’m not satisfied with the stuff I’m making, and I don’t have the focus or energy to craft the art I see in my head.  

SO I’m going on art hiatus until New Years.  Ask box and messages are gonna close down.  

TL:DR No Hades and Persephone kickstarter this year, no Petals to the Metal, no Way of Kings. 

I LOVE YOU ALL, I’ll see you in January!
