Cranking It Out Redux
Throughout all my time here on FAA, I've questioned the relationship of "Cranking it out" to "Creating"
Here is an old thread I started:

For the last year, I've been faced the enviable or perhaps unenviable situation where a concept, I had originally created as a "Fun" addition to the artwork I was selling at face to face shows,has become in demand on the internet.
To the point, I have to spend an inordinate amount of time cranking out these little buggers.
Even though, each critter has it's own unique quality, since by using scavenged natural matter, no two are exactly alike, a part of me wants to spend more time creating New Concepts in visual art
I know that this 88 year old Coot should be Happy/ Grateful, that even though rather limited, my work is still in demand........YET....
So, I'm again asking again:
What is your feeling about "Cranking it Out" and "Art" in general.?
Have you ever been in that situation when you were compelled to Create / Produce ?
Now, on to the Post Office, in the rain, shipping a critter to Michigan and 2 to Utah
