14: Multitasking in the studio - when to split focus and when to zone in
In this episode, we chat about how multitasking plays out in our art practices - from watching Survivor while painting to our virtual book club art sessions.
We dive into when splitting focus actually helps us get work done and when we need to buckle down and concentrate.
Through stories of our own studio habits, we explore how to balance multiple creative projects while keeping the momentum going.
Plus, we share our tried-and-tested background shows for productive studio sessions. Join us for an honest conversation about making art in today's multitasking world.
