Today's post and art is all about believing in yourself and your talent. No I don't always believe what I preach. I am the worst offender, I never made art for years because of two things, one I am a perfectionist and when I looked at my art I compared it to others and got discouraged and quit and I always worried about other people opinions of what I do. Now that I am older and supposedly wiser,I make art for ME, I don't care what others think about what I do because I make it for me, and sure its not a Picasso but I don't care. Now my friend the jewellery designer has been doubting herself lately and it surprised me, because of her amazing talent and I thought I guess I am not the only one out there that does that.
Well enough from Dr. Phil tonight, had a great day bought some art supplies (that always makes me happy) had both mothers for dinner. Watched a totaly bad movie in my opinion The Parire Home Companion, picked up the daughter from work and now blogging. Gonna have a sleep in and do some creating in the studio on Sunday. So I think i blog off and talk to you all tommorow.
That's a beautiful piece of art there! The colors are very autumn.
ReplyDeleteYou've got it right, art is definately for YOU! Never mind about what others may think. It's about getting your inner feelings and ideas out into the world. I think each and every person should be able to express themselves, and not worry too much about others opinions.
Love the Studio Friday pic, very moody lighting.
