Inspiration for you
-
When perfectionism tries to prevent you from starting your next painting, use this trick, tell yourself, “I’m just practicing.” When we know that we are just practicing, we give ourselves more grace. We don’t expect to be perfect. We will learn from mistakes and discover what works. So there’s no need to fear your next painting, it’s just practice. Speaking of practice. It’s time to practice.
