Hello!
For my first post here, I would like to share this piece that I did around 5 years ago. It is by far my most well-received work on the internet. ( A personal success for me, finally i accomplished something in life! 😅 )
I never thought that this piece would gain such success as it wasn't really the kind of work that I put much effort into it. It was more like a daily practice kind of work, an experimental study with photoshop brushes. Not really a serious artwork that usually took me days, weeks or even months of dedication. Like this one here:
..took me about six months. (30 minutes a day kind of work, left it for 2-3 days, put some more 2-3 hours on it and left it again just to revisit it weeks later. Not like 6 months straight wihout stop. A work I did in my free time which is very very rare to find between my full-time job.) A personal work without a deadline, so I can do that. :)
I guess.. (sometimes) it's not about how hard you work on something to make it a success. If you wanna do something, just do it. Stop procrastinating and just do it and you will get a better chance of success. Do nothing and you'll get nothing. If this got anything to do with luck and you haven't been lucky so far, just keep doing it until you hit it. Keep doing it, keep creating chances because 'luck' exists when there are chances involved. And work smart, there's always another way around to get a work done and it doesn't have to be the hard one.
Never give up. Keep doing what you love.
