My thanks on this day: I'm thankful that I still have an arm to draw with, a heart to dream with, and a mind to believe with.
These tools will be necessary when I finally pull myself together again. I'm in the down cycle of art study/creation that everyone seems to go through.
I've lost objectivity about my work. I can't tell how much I suck, and I fail to appreciate apparent greatness at the same time. It may be Dunning-Kruger; it may be apathy. I haven't drawn a thing in almost two weeks.
There's nothing like master studies to re-adjust one's suck-o-meter. Maybe that's the key. I'm feeling kind of distant from my dreams. Once I've found the spark, I'll return and write my understandings about it.
Peace and happy holidays.
Don't make excuses or theories for yourself, pick up your pencil man, take heart and pride in your work =)
