Sketch Book Cover Art - "Just Do It"

The image I chose for the cover of my sketchbook is a still from the famous motivation speech of Shia Labeouf's "Just do it" video.

Since I was a kid in elementary and then later in middle school and high school, I grew up watching Shia Labeouf in Even Stevens, Holes, Disturbia, and then later the Transformers movies, which ended up coming out to be really bad, except for maybe the first one.

If you have not watched the clip, I have included below so that you may watch it; Don't worry it's only about a minute long:

Other than it's because comedic values, I believe the idea or slogan "Just Do It" is applicable to all aspects of life, including art making.

As much as I dwell into self-help books, work-out videos, and philosophies of famous celebrities, there is nothing more true than simply getting up and starting.

They say the hardest thing to do in anything is STARTING. Unfortunately, I started these blog posts way too late, but at least I have a forum and opportunity to share my thoughts, beliefs, and ideas.

Have a great week everyone, and best of luck on finals and your future academic and artist careers...

JUST DO IT!

- Will
