My Top 9 Digital Art Paintings of 2020 & Reflections on The Year

Robbie Allen January 1, 2021

Perception of Time

Personally for me the year flew past. I am amazed with how quickly each week passes, I can't believe 1 year has gone by already. But I have been experiencing this for a few years now, not just in 2020. I think the main reason why was because I managed to dedicate much of my time to my art, study, and overall creative productivity, which helped me to feel elevated during tough periods. In 2018/2019 I was doing a lot of travel, combined with art practice, and this definitely seemed to add to the sense of acceleration of time to my own personal experience. 2020 was a year I was able to fully dedicate myself to art and further study.
