it ain't jellin

I received helpful feedback following my mid-term thesis presentation. It is interesting how one gets so bogged down in a project you totally can't see obvious technical and conceptual flaws. Fresh perspective in the form of constructive criticism is so helpful. I wish I had a full time mentor or critic on call for guidance.

I wonder if there ever comes a point as an artist where the fundamentals become almost second nature and most of the effort and focus can be placed on the ideas and not design principles and technique.
I won't give up despite my frustration over lack of professional and technical proficiency.
