I’m an illustrator! My goal in life is to be the best artist and bassist that I can be. I have dabbled in a lot of hobbies but nothing else has really touched my soul in the way these two things have.
I have been working hard at my art for years and I think I am finally at a point where I can chill out with the grinding (i.e. my technical skills are up to par and where I want them to be). Which is why a lot of my focus is shifting to bass; I feel like I’ve been neglecting it especially since I haven’t played in 7 years (long story).
Other hobbies I don’t devote nearly as much time to (say 2-3 hours a week maybe). I like playing board games (especially 4x games like Eclipse), role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons, video games like Overwatch and Valorant, and I have a small v-pet collection (Tamagotchis and other brands).
I also like to sew on occasion, but haven’t been recently. While I was trying to get my art career going, I was supplementing my income by selling handmade miniature clothing (1/6, 1/4 and 1/3 scale).
This week’s hobby - build a little stand for my Fearless cab to get it off the ground.
Found a nice design via someone on talkbass.
Having no workbench to do the work on, phase 1 is/was “build a workbench”.
There’s nothing like getting organized from the ground up. Personally, I just can’t function unless all my stuff is straightened up in an orderly fashion
