I can not believe how different my painting is from each step to the next.
I ended up completely covering the 2nd layer with the third layer. I guess I just keeping going & keep trusting that something will come of this since I seem to be having a hard time "letting go"!
This whole process has given me so much insight as to my patience (or lack thereof)
and wanting to know an outcome! Even waiting for the next painting lesson is a test of patience for me.
I want to know the whole process right now. :-)
I can seem to grasp that there are no mistakes. My perfectionism is a persistent little bugger.
Oh, and then there is the comparing -- seeing others paintings posted that I really enjoy and criticize myself for not being able to let go and create something beautiful too! Ugh. So, as you can tell, this week of lessons on letting go is much needed for me!!

I feel like I have learned more "life lessons" than I have about painting -- which is a good thing!
As I know in my heart that releasing these feelings/habits/thoughts will not only benefit me with my creativity but also in my life! For this, I say THANK YOU.

was the day I stopped trying to figure everything out.
The day I knew peace was the day
I let everything go.”
