Coming out of hibernation.


How are you going coming out of lockdown? 

For artists (many of whom would describe themselves as "introverts") this period of seclusion has been nothing short of blissful!

I've been absent (but definitely not AWOL) continuing work with the U.N. and the International Courts so couldn't get back to the blog over the past week or so. It's been crazy busy because "working from home" suits them all perfectly! (They can catch up on filing, for one thing!)

So while I work out where I got to on the blog, I thought I'd spend some time today adding some efforts of artists during lockdown and how they've used it to their advantage.

First off, check out the Royal Ballet's Joshua Junker.



Do not miss his video. "A Fine Day In Quarantine". Imagine this among your clips or on your reel! 0:)


Then there are those who have unexpectedly been perfectly adapted to the conditions of lockdown!

How Australia's 'fake genuine Russian choir' Dustyesky went viral during the coronavirus pandemic.



Have you added to your professional knowledge? How many short courses have you completed or have you done anything you can add to your resume or vital knowledge?

Such as how a dancer can help prevent injuries as they work.

The 6 New Injury Prevention Rules



How about working on your business plan for when you can work more actively?



Have you sat down and had a think about where you are going to go from here with your artwork? With your business? Remember, you and your work are your own product. How much do you appreciate what you do?

Make yourself a coffee/tea, find a quiet spot and consider what you've learned during this time; about yourself and about your Art.

Then give yourself a hug and admire your dedication along with what you've already achieved and in anticipation of where you are going to go from here.

Enjoy!
