tedium as a practice
January 3, 2008
A day spent creating clipping paths and faking finishes in Photoshop is good practice for all the other tedious tasks I have tackle, like doing the dishes, cleaning the litter box, putting away clean clothes, taking out the compost, etc. Actually, sometimes when my work day seems to be filled with more tedious tasks than interesting ones I try to take the approach of how can I do this tedious task to the absolute best of my ability. So how can I create the best fake of brushed nickel? How can I do a clipping path using as few anchor points as possible. It’s an interesting practice that sometimes leads to lots of satisfaction and acquiring new skills. Sometimes. Not always.
