Uninhibited architecture<\/strong>
\nOn this modest website,\u00a0Arquitectura Libre<\/a>, one photographer documents the outlandish homes that uninhibited new wealth enables in developing countries. So far he has cataloged creative buildings in only a few countries, but I\u2019ve seen these all around the world, particularly China, so I hope he keeps going. Normal homes are so boring!\u00a0\u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Mixing colors<\/strong>
\nMixing a specific color by hand \u2014 I want to make this particular shade of green starting from primary colors \u2014 is a super skill that artists acquire and is much harder than it looks. I watched many YouTube tutorials to learn how to do this with paints and this\u00a0one by Draw Mix Paint\u00a0<\/a>was the best method for me. It\u2019s still more art than science. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Nighttime to-do list<\/strong>
\nA small change in my workflow that has done wonders is writing out my to-do list at night instead of in the morning when I sit down to work. I adopted this new practice after reading\u00a011 Artists Share the Bedtime Rituals That Keep Them Creative<\/a>. At least two of the artists said they plan out their goals for their next day. I find that by doing this, my mind wanders less and I fall asleep faster. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Relationship mini-insight<\/strong>
\nIn this short snippet from a longer interview, Esther Perel explains \u201cWhy your Partner Criticizes You.<\/a>\u201d She says behind every criticism is a\u00a0wish<\/em>. This does not excuse being critical toward your partner, but keeping this in mind helps me focus on what it is I\u2019m really requesting of my partner and what he might be asking of me. Worth the 4-minute listen. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Portable Apple Watch charger<\/strong>
\nI bought this\u00a0small Apple Watch charger<\/a>\u00a0for my\u00a0travel kit<\/a>. It has a USB-C and USB-A plug so I can plug it into my laptop or a wall charger. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n
