This video has been suggested to me by the YouTube algorithm every day for the past week and I finally caved and watched it. And it was good.
I really like his takeaway about productivity: It's all about singular focus (which is why I think "batching" is such a popular concept). And the idea that all anyone needs is a mission, an outlet, and energy. It got me thinking about common complaints I hear from art-makers:
- Mission – Have you ever had time to make art but felt stuck and/or overwhelmed? It might be because you don't have a clear mission.
- Outlet – To me, this is the time/space/supplies/skills issue. You want to create. You know what you want to create. But there's a barrier to getting it done. Most of the time it comes down to time, space, supplies, and/or skills. You can overcome all of those barriers, but it involves work and compromise and commitment. (For more on this continue on to the article I've linked below.)
- Energy – Are you too tired after a long day at work to do anything creative? You're not alone. It's not easy to "get more energy." In my current season of life, I have the most energy earlier in the day. When the baby goes down for his nap, I'm full of pep. When he goes to sleep at night, I'm pretty wrung out. I used to think I should therefore tackle my administrative tasks during the "good" part of the day. I'm much happier since I decided to flip it around and do creative work early and administrative stuff later in the day.
It's so clear how getting stuck on any one of these points can be detrimental to getting anything done creatively. Or feeling good about what you've done.
Serendipitously, my friend Sheeri sent me a great article about long feedback loops. (Read it. It's short and worth it.)
In essentials, it's about the idea that short feedback loops (instant gratification) is addictive.
- When you're not very skilled, you get lots and lots of instant gratification as you quickly improve.
- When you're more skilled, the improvements are slower and more subtle. It's harder to see the growth. Your desire to "work at it" may wane. This is a long feedback loop.
For me, as a teacher and coach, I see a lot of students in the short feedback loop stage. I get to live vicariously through their short feedback loops. Their excitement and delight reminds me of how far I've traveled in my own journey as an artist. It's extremely helpful in propelling me forward through my own long feedback loop. It's one of the many selfish reasons that I enjoy teaching.
I hope the video, the linked article, and this blog post have all given you some food for thought. For me, art making is an intellectual as well as an aesthetic and physical pursuit.
Thanks for stopping by!

I think this may be particularly true in mixed media, where you can hop around from one medium to another to get the instant gratification thrill. Oooo, alcohol inks! Oooo, embossing powders! Oooo, texture paste!

I found this video and the “long feedback loops” article so fascinating and helpful to me in very personal ways. Thank you so much for always sharing things that you find important. I would never have come across either of these on my own.
I am definitely a “victim” (really my own fault) of short feedback loops. I love the feeling and abandon anything that gets hard with my usual excuses, “I just can’t draw.” “I don’t have the skill/talent to do this.” Lately, I have been trying to make myself stick with things that are hard for me. Your voice is in my head, and I need it. It says, “What if…,” “It’s only a piece of paper,” and, “What are you saving this for?”
Anyway, thank you, Julie, you help more than you know!

That was a VERY interesting video! A lot of great takeaways on productivity and focus and purpose. I could see it being helpful to anyone, not just artists and creatives. I could actually see myself on that schedule – I’m not a morning person and when I have the opportunity to stay up late working I really seem to find that is a good time for me to really be creative and can stay up til 3 a.m. when I’m on a roll and I don’t even notice the time! Not sure if I could sustain that schedule but I’d love to be able to give it a try for a few weeks to see like this guy did! I may just check out more of his videos to see what else he did. Thanks for sharing!

This post is a great example of your habit of creating a few lines of “takeaways” at the end of any learning activity. I love it, and am going to try it myself —- I’m a good note-taker, but I haven’t written down MY OWN takeaways on things.
The long feedback loops is a great concept for me, right now. I’m a “good enough” artist that my friends/family aren’t impressed anymore that I actually completed a painting (which is still somewhat amazing to me), and their response is “oh yeah, it looks good” in a flat tone of voice. And especially now that I’m trying out new things, new styles, I get a lot more “Oh. . . .that’s interesting. . . . ” Your points about long feedback loops helps a lot in my not being discouraged by all of this. Thanks Julie! Have a great day, Cat

Love the video especially! Very interesting on many levels. AS I read the comments, I am reminded of words from a wonderful book that I just finished reading called THE GIFT by Edith Eger, Ph.D. She wrote, not to be a prisoner to judgments of others! So cool! Julie, thank you for always bringing new things to the table to think about. You are not only a seeker but a great researcher to find these amazing pearls! Have a lovely afternoon and week!

I just had an aha moment about why I abandoned my watercolour portrait project. I got to the long feedback loop portion, it seemed like I wasn’t improving at all. This gves me the motivation to get back to it.
Thanks for this. I also loved what you said about creativity being intellectual. I feel like I have been alone in the wilderness on that!

As someone who’s retired I struggle with schedule, productivity and output. Especially after coming from corporate America. I liked Nathaniel Drew’s thoughtful approach and openness to learning pretty cool! I’ll be looking at other content by him, I’m sure. So thanks for the recommendation and calling attention to the concepts of Mission, Outlet and Energy. Lots to think about!

I really enjoyed your post and suggested articles. The article you recommended regarding short and long feedback loops was interesting when thinking about it in relation to art making and social media. Social media can can be very encouraging and validating when first starting out and receiving those “short feedback” affirmations. Yet, can possibly slow personal progress down if you’re looking to explore or master your craft as that takes time and I believe, solitary practice. In the latter case, I liken that long feedback loop as more internal, trusting one’s own intuition rather than a like button…Thanks Julie for your thought provoking post.
I really enjoyed your post and suggested articles. The article you recommended regarding short and long feedback loops was interesting when thinking about it in relation to art making and social media. Social media can can be very encouraging and validating when first starting out and receiving those “short feedback” affirmations. Yet, can possibly slow personal progress down if you’re looking to explore or master your craft as that takes time and I believe, solitary practice. In the latter case, I liken that long feedback loop as more internal, trusting one’s own intuition rather than a like button…Thanks Julie for your thought provoking post.
