Hey art lovers! Just wanted to share a little artist-to-artist wisdom today. You know that "ugly phase" we all hit while painting? Yep, the one where your masterpiece-to-be looks like a hot mess? Well, I've realized it's a lot like navigating through life's awkward stages. Remember those questionable fashion choices and cringe-worthy moments from our younger years? Just like how we bloom into our fabulous 40s and 50s with a solid sense of self, our paintings also emerge from that messy phase into something beautiful.
This little canvas started as a scorching hot mess. It meandered. it muddled. It hibernated in its own cringe. I tried to force it into becoming what I wanted, not what it is. Then, with some gold paint and a little patience, it bloomed into this stunning little portrait of a gorgeous, fierce figure owning her universe.
So, here's to embracing the process, both on the canvas and in life. Cheers to finding our inner masterpiece amidst the chaos. #embracetheuglyphase
