Warg Riders and Mental Health

Dave, my wife and I have been watching your videos for a long time. We live in Russia, we had problems with alcohol and depression, you motivate us to get creative, my wife is an artist in the church, and I am a sculptor in Siberia. Life in Russia is not very fun and your work fills us with faith in the kindness of people. Keep going, we're waiting, don't give up!

[@StudioDave]

Such kind words. Thank you. I don't really know what life in Russia is like, but I do know that it sounds like you and your wife are doing your best to take care of yourselves and each other, and that is a wonderful thing. I hope you both keep up being creative and bringing beauty into this world.

You and me both!

Great candid video Dave that I'm sure many will appreciate. As someone who has also suffered with depression for some years and more recently crippling anxiety It's really nice to hear someone say it's OK to just rest sometimes, I find me guilting myself for not hitting deadlines and not putting out videos quickly enough to appease the almighty algorithm. It's great to know there are other guys out there with the same struggles. And a fellow crafter no less! Really enjoyed your video and watching your process. I'll be working my way back through your videos for sure. 👍👍👍

Thanks for watching my stuff, and your comment. It does indeed help to know we're not alone in our struggles. Keep crafting! BTW I just checked out your channel. You do some interesting stuff. Sub'd.

First time seeing one of your videos, your work is incredible! Having a rough time at the moment with university stress and this has 100% inspired me to tuck myself away this weekend and lose myself in a painting project after months not picking up a brush, feel like I really needed to see this today

[@StudioDave]

You got this! getting lost in a painting project sounds very therapeutic. Do it!

Another great BTS on your remarkable skills, Dave! Thanks for the transparency on mental health and wellness. And hey, congrats on your new book!

First time watching. I used to do some toy car photography and make them realistic looking with the same selective lighting trick. I love the LCD background trick. I'm inspired to get back to it my friend!

[@StudioDave]

Thanks for watching! Ride that inspiration and take some more photos :)

[@murfmoney]

[@StudioDave]

Thank you! Will do!
