sometimes you don't feel creative
This has been a time of having so much creative energy and then sitting down to express it and just... struggling. Nothing looks the way I want it to, I feel like I lost all my skill (or maybe I never had any?!) and I’m buying way too many art supplies, because an old artist secret is that your skill directly correlates to the number of canvases you have piled up in your closet. 🤦🏻♀️⠀⠀⠀
I planned to have a bit of downtime right now to both do some planning and creating for the holiday season and give myself time to explore my style and improve my skills, and I’m so grateful I did, because I’m in a WEIRD PLACE LET ME TELL YA. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Have you ever experienced this? You think you’re good at something and then you’re humbled by how much you have to learn? Please tell me I’m not alone!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

(Ps this is the only thing I made this week for myself that I didn’t immediately want to light on fire, so maybe there’s a light at the end of the tunnel) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
