Album Art Kid Indigo Gold Single

May 11, 2017

Kid Indigo's new song GOLD is so catchy. This album cover was a blast to do because who doesn't love sparkly, shiny, glittery project?

Emotional post alert...
.
.
I’ve been playing the comparison game lately. A lot. We all know that we shouldn’t do it... but sometimes my monkey brain gets the best of me... i think it’s the thing that’s been weighing on me really heavily lately. Seeing highlight reels and not real life makes it hard to not feel... less than. Even if everything is going pretty damn well. .
.
So, I’m making a chang. I’ll continue to post stuff on here, that’s the good part of social media to me, (I love sharing my work, plus I can automate this ish) but I’m stopping with the mindless scrolling.
.
.
I’ve been trying to take this little hiatus for the last few days, + let me tell you, the muscle memory that my thumb has when it unlocks my phone, to go straight to Instagram for a little peak, it’s crazy. I’m working on it.
.
.
So, if I’m slow in responding to any comments or DMs or anything of the like please know it’s to avoid the pesky burnout//compaison game//etc that is so easy to fall into. .
.
AND if you’re in the Portland area and want to grab tea, coffee (or something stronger, wink) hit me up for some IRL connection. (I suggest my contact form on my website, but I’ll still be around-ish on here at times.)
.
.
Here’s some inspiration quotes that I love that I’ll leave you with:
.
.
“Comparison is the thief of joy”
.
.
“Look in the mirror. That’s your competition.”
.
.
💘

For the super snow moon tonight ✨ .

Who is SO READY for spring now?

I’m over here trying to manifest an extra day to this weekend...
