Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experience treacherous, judgement difficult
-Hippocrates 400 B.C.
I am currently reading Art and Fear and it is blowing my mind with its straightforward truth! I know unconsciously that the artistic life is a difficult one, that I leave things unfinished by jumping from one idea to the next and wondering what is the point of it all....well now I am seeing answers, and if not solutions, than explanations for my reality.
Setting aside doubt seems to be the key for me.
Being able to see past uncertainty and fear and press through. Learning to accept myself, flawed as I am, and use the only voice I have to speak.
