I have 12 weeks left until my deadline, and whilst I feel a little nervous about getting everything done, I’ve realised recently that I’ve actually done way more on this project already than I’d given myself credit for.

The Magnified Mark #01: Learning to Build an Artwork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
