Batman is my assistant for evening thoughts today - hellish heat, no melatonin and walking dead I am
I need to stay strong, I need to stay calm...
Damn, guys, it's hell I'm living in at the moment! 35 Celsius in the deep evening in my apartment - it really kills me. I thought I'm about to have a creative attack, I even removed a new canvas from the cover, but...
Now imagine that. My oil paints got too liquid! And this is even not the worst part.
As I already mentioned I have absolutely no possibility to draw any digital art at the moment. The reason is simple - my graphic tablet gets way too hot long before I finish even basic sketching for new art. So it's impossible for me to work, it's a nice choice: either I spoil me device, or I make my clients wait.
And that's damn awful. So I have to wait until 3-4 a.m., when it gets a bit cooler, and work only at night. And that causes me another difficulty.
Since I'm treated from depression and insomnia I have a pill to take before I go to bed, that activates melatonin production. But now I'm forces to work at night, even deeper night then I usually do. And by the time I go to bed it's already too hot again and I have nothing to breath with, so can't sleep as well.
Guys, I already look like a true walking dead!
Can please someone borrow me some rain? Or may be even snow? I would be really grateful.
Sorry for lack of new art, it really is a vicious circle. I have to draw for clients and post on steemit to earn myself a conditioner, but I can't work and post on steemit because I don't have one. I have no idea how I managed with two simple watercolors I showed today, these ones:
Well, at least my dog will feel better tomorrow, I'm taking her to the hairdresser and probably will remove 90% of fur. So she will be able to hide her tongue. ..
Thank you for voting and commenting:)
Love, Inber
"I have to draw for clients and post on steemit to earn myself a conditioner, but I can't work and post on steemit because I don't have one" 100% vote because i feel you @inber haha. Same here..! Great work there btw!
The fact that I'm not alone doesn't make me feel better, we all suffer:(
Thank you:)
Aaw.. here's a little tip. Take care, hope to hear from you soon. Have a great day.
Very cute batman!
Thanks!:)
Hang in there , the weather will get better :)
I hope it's true:)
Great post amazing artist , hope your doge like its look tomorrow:)
I will show. This is how she looked after previous one:)
There is a yoga breath that can cool you. Curl up your tongue forming sort of a straw. tick it out of your mouth and breathe in slowly so the air goes through the tube in your tongue. Breathe out through your nose. take a few up to 12 breaths. That should cool you down. Repeat every half hour or so as needed. Drink plenty of fluids and make sure you get electrolytes.
Good luck.
It is hot where I live too and my schedule is off. I nap with a fan blowing and work in the evening. I have a spray bottle with cold water too and that helps,
I have no hot water at home at all, so the only opportunity is cold shower, ha-ha:)
Thank you for your advice, but... I tried a lot of things before I went to psychiatrist, and yoga with yoga breath too. Really nothing helps, no meditations, special breaths ect. I just have my thyroid in "dancing mode", so it makes my life really strange:)
And water is something i really love:) Always have a bottle for me and my dog:)
I get your point but that breath cools!
Ops, I thought it meant to calm me. Sorry, it's my english:)
I love your English :)
The most human hero there is.
You've been great! :)
I clicked because you mentioned Melatonin and found you had painted my all time favorite R2D2!!! <3
I read that cherries are a natural source of melatonin! See if you can pick some up one the days you dont have your suppliments. It might help! <3
I'm a "winner" here... I'm allergic to cherries
Oh Inber, hang in there dear, I hope it gets better for you quickly. I know the weather is crazy this year and nothing likes the heat.
It's really crazy. Everything was ok till it was raining, and now it's super hellish:(
set up a ghetto air con with some water drip onto a fan blade or something, just keep the water away from the electrics cause that tends to end badly. A bucket inside a bucket with ice / water and a fan pushing around it also works.
Aside from that thanks for sharing the artworks, much nice. <3
Great idea, by the way! Thank you, I'll give it a try!
Fantastic! Now I want to make it even just for fun, thank you so much for the tip!:)
Works rather well. Just need a constant supply of ice haha.
