Yesterday was my birthday. That has nothing to do with this painting, but it was. Sometimes it feels like birthdays are the gamification of life. "Achievement Unlocked! You are now lvl 38!" It feels good to have made it another year. To still have a nice sized bucket list to check off before I check out.
There's still a lot I want to do, but if I couldn't do anything else I wouldn't feel like these years have been wasted. That's the balance I always aim to maintain.
Anywhoo, this is an old painting that is a redo of an even older painting. This was version one of this painting.
Then I don't exactly remember how much time passed, but at some point I looked at it again, and of course whenever you look back at older work, all the issues jump out at you and I took another whack at it.
I ended up liking the new version a lot more. It can be a fun exercise to grab an old piece and rework it with your current new level. Another one of the nice things about working digitally is that I can open a file that years old, and just pick right back up where I left off.
In other news, the feed in OnChainArt is looking great! Thanks to all you OnChain Artists for sharing your awesome work. Keep it up! :) This community, as well as all of HIVE is just ever moving upward. We're not sprinting, but without a doubt, we're moving in the right direction. That's exciting to see.
Alright, that's all for now. Have a good Sunday Hivers.
