Being Too Hard On Myself
A video to remind me/you to practice self-love and accepting that ideas don't always come out the way you want. I feel I know this but in the moment of creating, I seem to forget (especially when things aren’t going the way I initially planned). Learning to accept that I can't always achieve the things I want in a painting will help tame the negative critic within me. Being aware is one thing, actually doing it is a whole other process. In time I hope to become kinder to myself while creating and to know that it is okay if things are not going the way you want. Someone out there is going to like it no matter what you think. This painting was an exact example of that and has helped me realise how much I need to continue to practice loving myself and the art I create.
