It's dumb to compare myself to some of the masters but I do. There is such a chasm between where I am and where they are. I feel I have the tools and mental facility to get closer. But for some reason putting the pieces together is like holding sand with sticks.
For the past couple of months I focused a lot on drawing. Because I really wanted to trust the connection between mind and hand. I feel that it's getting better. It has come quite clear that this is a lifelong endeavor. You are thinking "duh" and you are right. Don't know why I was thinking I could be competent in a couple of months.
One of the slow realizations is that I need a process of working. So many different ways of doing things. I need to hone a way of working that fits me.
It's hard to remember to take a step back and realize part of the fun is in the struggle.
Ok done venting. Thanks for listening :)
