wandering

I wandered upon this post today.

via twitter, via kellyraeroberts, via her guest post at superherodesigns, via the archives, via randomly choosing May 2004.

this was the entry at the top of the page.

dreams

I was reminded today of an important turning point in my creative life. A woman wrote to me and asked, "How do you keep your confidence up (without letting it dissipate) to keep living your creative dream?"

What came to mind is something a friend of mine told me years ago. I was saying something self-deprecating and insecure about my artwork and he turned to me and said, "When are you going to take it for granted that you are a talented artist? When are you going to stop trying to prove it? Assume it. Take it for granted and imagine what you could create from that place..."

My whole life changed that day.

it's exactly what I needed today.
Thank you.
