Making in 2021
At the end of each year, I do an assessment of how much artwork I've produced as a measure of my creative mental health. All of it counts; corny, basic, accomplished. I didn't do as much in 2021 as previous years, but enough to keep to my personal commitment of making every year, no matter what.
I encourage anyone with a creative streak to indulge it joyfully, even if you have to create all day as a part of your job. Your mind will thank you.
I hope your creative mental health has been great this year and that you plan to value it even more in 2022.
