“I think the reason I create art is because I’m too afraid to say what is in my mind in written form so instead I create art so others can see it visually. I dislike writing my thoughts in journals and online for fear that someone who I don’t want to see it will. Instead I create art out of my thoughts because if someone sees it they may not really get what I was trying to say in the first place. It feels less scary that way."

work in progress

Everything is a work in progress, I think forget to remember that while working on a project. I always want fabulous results on the spot, sometimes I feel like this seems like lazyness to work or either maybe it is just that I want some form of instant gratification and when it doesn't come I get irritated and stressed. None the less I am carrying on because not only do I have to but I am determined. After having spent February break with the flu and getting absolutely nothing accomplished the week after I produced some more work but even then didn't feel satisfied with that work. Combination of not feeling good still and other stress factors did not help to change my constant mood of negativity. I met this afternoon to get advice from Karen and like most times I hear exactly what I need to in order to carry on. Looking to post pictures of the new progress this week and get feedback on them. Hoping tomorrow is another fruitful studio day!
