Practice like a MUSICIAN and Learn to DRAW Better - Creative Crossovers 

That's kind of you to say, thank you! 🍻

So important

Editing this video made me want to drink some beer too! Unfortunately for me I just went low carb for a while 😧

Also, tempo and variation are concepts I'm familiar with but haven't explored properly yet and I think it's time, if for no other reason than to help clarify my voice and broaden the horizons. And I may end up with a nice little themed series :-) Cheers!

Excellent point about the difference between what you share and what you just work on for your own self-development. Often the practice in music ends in a performance and the two are the same. Much like doing studies in painting. But when you sit down to improvise, everything that’s now second nature from the pieces and such you’ve learned is at your fingertips. You don’t get on stage and play scales, you go up there and play from your vocabulary of scales and other ideas you’ve learned along the way. Another point I want to get into some time is a lesson I really took to heart from Todd Hido (I think he got from Larry Sultan). I personally never shared any of my work for years because it wasn’t original enough. I didn’t feel I had my own voice yet. It’s still a struggle. But his lesson was to think of it as adding to the conversation. Originality will come not from saying what’s never been said, but from saying it from your own perspective. Great idea when it feels like everything has been done before so “why bother?”. As for finding that perspective, I really enjoyed Ralph Gibson’s lesson (originally from Dorothea Lange) to find a point of departure. So rather than going out and taking a bunch of pictures and hoping something comes of it, rather go out with an intention in mind and use that as a point of departure. Go deeper into that subject matter or style or concept or whatever rather than just trying everything and hoping you find a great shot. So my point here is if your point of departure is to imitate your heroes, and your goal is to eventually add to that conversation something new, targeting your practice in that way will give you the focus and direction to start carving your own path in time.

What is the berga man?

In a literal traduction berga means dick, but berga means more, berga means something cool, great or other many facts asociated with cool things

Thanks for the answer Vinny, eres la berga

So like in English when someone says “the shit”? Haha, thanks Alejandro 🤘
