Grizzly and The Bear Patrol 36
One of the few things that has given me some solace this week was working on this comic book. There is an artistic concept called flow that I experience often. Wikipedia worded the definition so well, I'm going to post it:
"Flow in positive psychology, also known colloquially as being in the zone or locked in, is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by the complete absorption in what one does, and a resulting transformation in one's sense of time. Flow is the melting together of action and consciousness; the state of finding a balance between a skill and how challenging that task is. It requires a high level of concentration. Flow is used as a coping skill for stress and anxiety when productively pursuing a form of leisure that matches one's skill set."
I've had some great moments of this lately, and it's definitely helped with my stress levels.
Last night, I got Issue 36 of "Grizzly and The Bear Patrol" finished. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to post it this weekend, but I got lucky and things fell into place. You can read the full issue by clicking on the cover below. I hope you enjoy Issue 36 - "Relative Discord."
Questions, comments, or criticisms? Hit me with them. :)
