Watch an artistic process to give you pause...

The artist is Hokuto Konishi. There are two videos, one about the process and one of the final product. They demonstrate, among other things, the utter determination to see a vision through to the end.

Enjoy the first video, be amazed at the second. They should be appreciated as a pair.

“As tedious and painful as (this process) was, contributing something to the world that you’ve never seen or experienced..the adrenaline rush you get from that I think there’s nothing that beats that....It really doesn’t matter the path is to get to that point.”   Hokuto Konishi
