I am a data scientist who makes art every single day. I count everything — every gesture, every notan, every portrait. Not because the numbers are the point, but because they are proof that the practice is real.
I started numbering my reps in 2024. It removed the pressure to make every session meaningful. A rep is just a rep. The meaning compounds over hundreds of them.
This site is the live record of that practice. The heatmap shows where the work actually happened. The notes show what I was thinking when it did.
I also write a weekly newsletter about building a creative practice inside a full life. If you have ever told yourself you do not have time to make art, that one is for you.
