The importance of routine for creatives seems to me to be essential, even if we think we don't want it.  I have found that there is a huge benefit to my creativity, production, and work/life balance when I have a basic framework of order, schedule, and routine in my life.  I think you may have experienced the same.
As artists, or creative professionals, we need to feel as though we are free to express ourselves without restriction, to have spontaneity, to follow the art where it leads us.  But I have found that when I have structure around my day, I can carve out space for that kind of freedom of expression much more effectively than when I don't.  
So what is your dream day?  How do you allow yourself to be creative within a framework of routine?  Let's talk about it.

“Art Life with John & Bogdan” is a weekly blog/vlog/podcast that creates a community, a conversation, between creatives in all sorts of fields at all sorts of levels.  We want to discuss what we’re learning, what we’ve experienced, and whom we’ve met in our journey of running a freelance creative business. John Bishop is a visual artist living in Houston, Texas. His work is largely abstract, and explores how to turn mythic, archetypal symbols into individual experiences allowing us to see them in a new way, with fresh eyes. Bogdan is a videographer and fine art photographer who constantly seeks to stretch the boundaries of traditional photographic work, with the added flare of his artistic eye.  Both artists’ work can be seen online, or at their studios at Silver Street Studios, 2000 Edwards Street, in Houston.
