Tutorial

As mentioned, over the weekend I popped home to try and clear my head and figure out a my project, hoping to come in this morning with a plan. Unfortunately, no such luck. I felt quite negative (and poorly which didn't help) in tutorial this morning, looking at the amount of progression everybody had made in the past week, whilst I have been extremely stuck. I'm not very happy with my glue gun samples, I feel that the quality wasn't as strong as I'd have liked them to be, on what level I'm not sure, but they just seemed too flat. They will need to be re-thought...

I hate not being able to enjoy 'making' and feeling uninspired. I think that I became a little overwhelmed this morning, and decided that it wasn't a good day to be sitting in the studio, so went home. Looking on the internet, I came back across this lovely list, 'ways to stay creative', and decided that I really need to stop worrying so much! I always get myself worked up, not purposely, when things go wrong, so it's an issue that I need to deal with so not to affect my work!
