The Process Is the Product - Andrea Fanelli

Sometimes the mistakes are what makes a work great.

Think about what you can share from your process that would inform the people you’re trying to reach. Have you learned a craft? What are your techniques? Are you skilled at using certain tools and materials? What kind of knowledge comes along with your job?

The learning process is the perfect thing to share: it is constantly throwing off little odds and ends that can be posted online; it’s ok if it’s messy and incomplete; it shows evidence of consistent progress; it includes both successes and failures; and it makes reference to the best sources while also injecting your own voice and experience.

WIP along the way:  While I appreciate craft when it comes time for a final outcome, I’m happy to see messy or work-in-progress ideas or materials as we get there. In the words of Marie Kondo, “I love mess!”
