One Of The Things I Swear By As An Artist Is My Artistic Routine. Thats Basically The Time I Set Aside

One of the things I swear by as an artist is my artistic routine. That’s basically the time I set aside to draw, learn, and replenish my creativity.

As someone who can easily burn myself out or run out of ideas, having a manageable and realistic routine is the only thing that’s helped me maintain a steady output for over 21 years of posting my art online. I have so many ideas about how to set one up - here’s a little snippet of a longer video I made about the topic! You can watch the full video over on my patreon.

LES BALLADES FRANÇAISES by Paul Fort. [1897]. Art binding by Paul Gruel (1927).

———

Paul Fort was an extremely influential member of the artistic community of Montparnasse. Since its first publication in 1897, approximately forty volumes of Fort’s ballads have been released. These rich poetic works mix symbolism, simplicity and lyricism within the verse, in a manner so unique that fellow poets (like Amy Lowell) have credited him with creating the polyphonic prose form.

This Egyptian-inspired binding employs a technique called "onlay." The book was covered in a single piece of black leather; leathers of different colors were then pared extremely thinly and adhered to the base leather to form the pattern.
