A thought on research: There is always a way to become better informed.
There is absolutely a point of diminishing returns when it comes to research, but the first safari into the world you seek to understand cannot be done without talking to real people.
On that note… I had a thought. My dog was recently in the ER (she’s fine, just dumb) and before I decided to take her in, I was trying to talk to a vet… at 1:30am.
I ended up talking to a vet in South Africa through this website JustAnswer.
The site is a monthly subscription of $45 that gives you access to professionals in all sorts of “expert” fields. Lawyers, Doctors, Vets, Computer Techs, Mechanics, etc.
It got me thinking…
I’ve always believed the best qual comes from those in regular contact with your audience, not the audience themselves (want to understand moms? talk to teachers)
Could I not use this subscription as an always on panel of experts? As long as someone on this list has regular contact with a target audience…
Anyway, I’m going to give it a shot and I’ll report back.

WEEKLY MONSTER
This is a fun one. I generated an image with Dall•E then projected that image onto canvas. Using it as a rough guide, I made a new painting of my own.
We’re in weird legal territory for art.
