Social media has not been kind to my brain recently.
•
As an artist, it’s difficult to find a balance. There are people who are masters of the algorithm that will tell you that you have to be posting multiple times a day, utilizing reels, sounds, stories, captions, etc. But for many artists like myself who have full time jobs outside of our art, devoting hours of our week to creating content, researching hashtags, and making reels, isn’t sustainable.
•
And even though it can be hard to believe some days, this doesn’t make you any less of an artist. I often have to remind myself that this isn’t a competition. That I share my work here simply because I enjoy it. I enjoy engaging with the people who like it, I enjoy getting to be apart of a a community that makes art in hopes that putting even the smallest bit of good into the world will make it better.
•
So I guess the take home question today is why do you use social media? And how do you limit time spent on the aspects of social media that don’t necessarily serve you?

A little throwback from March.
In this hot weather, it’s crazy to think that just a few months ago, we had to take breaks during shoots to put our jackets back on and warm up in the car.

Bought a new prism that I had the opportunity to play with yesterday. ✨ How do you feel about using prisms for photos?

It’s currently 95°, and I’m afraid that if I take any models out into this heat, we’ll both melt instantly. So here’s a picture of the Kirkbride building to make up for lack of posts.
