I CANT STOP LOOKING AT THIS!

I'm finally done with this piece. I'm so in love with it, and I'm so proud to say that because I couldn't for a minute. I would stare and stare and stare at certain things I create, trying to fix every line that wasn't “perfect”. THAT process sometimes caused me to never post certain work.

Recently I fell in love with the “not-so-perfect” version of my creations. I'm intentional with my work, what some may see as imperfect, I see BEAUTY, unique, and what I define as ART.

While Creating is therapeutic, I do hope that it is my path to become something that can replace my 9-5.

But in the mean time I’ll keep pushing myself until I reach new heights. Whats for me won't pass me by🙏🏾🧡✨

Ps - let me know if you all would love prints of this, so you can decorate your space. ✨

Medium: digital art.

... Read moreIn the world of art, perfection is often overrated. Many artists spend countless hours striving for an unattainable standard, forgetting that authenticity can shine through imperfection. The unique aspects of one's creations can evoke emotion and connection, making them truly valuable. As I reflect on my art journey, I appreciate the beauty of what many might dismiss as 'flaws.' Instead of editing out these imperfections, I embrace them, as they tell a story of my creative process and growth. This shift in perspective not only helps me grow as an artist but also allows my audience to connect with my work on a more personal level. Creating art is therapeutic and fulfilling, often acting as an outlet for self-expression and reflection. Many artists, like myself, find joy in the freedom of creating without the shackles of perfectionism. This ethos not only enriches my work but also inspires others to explore their own artistic endeavors unapologetically. Digital art opens doors to various techniques and styles, enabling artists to experiment and break traditional mold. Whether through vibrant colors or abstract designs, each piece created has its own narrative. As I continue to share my journey, I invite others to join in celebrating our unique artistic expressions and inspire one another in this beautiful community.

Stop chasing someone who will never be enough. We are looking to other people to fill God size holes in us that only God can fill. There is nothing wrong with you, but your focus. If you’re focused on finding your person, you just might miss your purpose. Seek first the Kingdom of God and all else
