This is a journal spread...after all these years of making art I still struggle with this. But I move on. I find that the joy of creating so often can overpower that critic. He still raises his mean head still from time to time. I like the image I found for him- I put the red X over his mouth.
What an amazing representation of a struggle so many of us have, me included! I am trying to silence my inner critic when he says negatives. I seem to be getting better at constructive criticism especially when I have to turn lemons into lemonade. Love your graphic expression and balance between journal pages.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it odd, after all this time we all still struggle with this. The more I make art the quieter this voice gets for me.
ReplyDeleteCan I use the word "gorgeous" and get away with it? You've given the inner critic a colorful kick.
