As developers, we often stare at a computer screen all day only to come home and stare at more glowing boxes all night. Having a productive, nontechnical hobby can really help to keep us sharp for our day jobs. You'll watch me live-paint a small model for a game called Warmachine while I describe some of the techniques I use. You'll hear about how painting has helped me to clear my mind after work, keeping me away from burnout I might encounter if I wasn't exercising a different brain lobe. Afterward, I'd love to chat about painting and playing games.
