I thought these sheets were really beautiful so I photographed them when I was about to change them when we were back at the cabin. This was the slice of heaven we occupied at the cabin, a separate sleeping loft:

 
 
There’s a lot I’ve been thinking about with the reset and when making art posters of the last few days… but I want to dignify those ideas with a fresh head and the good night of sleep that I’ve been missing recently. It’s all basically tied into this rubberband ball of my thoughts that concern the following year of artistic license at Bard. I’m thinking about bottling this peace and go-get-’em’ness that I feel here in Finland. I want to preserve this flashfire synapse that I feel is being sustained between thinking of something and doing it.
 
#423 Lesson This Project Has Taught Me: just make stuff. Constantly. Because not all of it will be excellent, but all of it is forward momentum. Working on multiple projects at once eases artistic tedium/boredom because you don’t feel so tied down to static ideas. It’s not always easy to love what you’re doing – but it’s important to always try and be doing what you love.

Aaannd, today I started coding a new version of my portfolio website, the old one is fine for now, but a bit creaky and nonstandard. I’m coding this new one in PHP using Indexhibit, it should be a lot sleeker and more professional. I’m psyched. Today I just figured out the basics and finagled the accordion menu code into working order so that sections collapse and retract in turn. Colors and links and fonts are all temporary. I figured I better get a start on this before the summer and my free time ends!
