Don't Think About Making Art

Just get it done.

Hello my Freaky Darlings!

Yesterday, I created this page in my journal with a brilliant quote from the Pop artist Andy Warhol for #MondayMotivation. This is great advice because it's easy to get trapped in the overthinking; "What if nobody likes it...", "What if it's not good enough...", "What if I'm not good enough...".

What ifs are a waste of your power. It takes strength, will, and constant reminding yourself (I know it did me, and still does - it gets easier with practice) but, do your best to learn to not care what other people may or may not think about you and/or your work.

Be You. Do You.

I love the part of the quote that says, "While they are deciding, make even more art."

Don't sit around waiting for peoples' reactions; you could be waiting forever! You also run the risk of letting peoples' opinions define you, and your art.

Don't let someone else's opinion of you become your reality. Never sacrifice who you are because someone else has a problem with it.

Love who you are inside and out.

- Les Brown

Ignore the masses.

Aim for done, not perfect.

Be as prolific as you can.

Much Love and Blessed Be
