Give yourself Permission

How many times have you started to paint or draw and stopped? How many times have you beat yourself up because you  were not as good as you wanted to be? Every artist I know of has done it. We all want to be as good as the old masters.

Well I have a solution to the problem, "Give yourself permission" to goof up, to start over, or try again.

By giving yourself permission to make a mistake you gain more than you lose. Bob Ross said, " We don't make mistakes we have happy accidents." Meaning we can fix or work with these accident.

I like this Indian picture, it is a reminder of the warrior who keep on fighting.

Keep your brushes wet and give yourself permission....
