Art-Don’t Let Afraidness Hold You Back

I love to create art.

I bet many of you love to create art also, but are nervous about it.

Actually, it’s afraidness that is keeping you stuck.

Listening to all the inner critics and unhelpful commenters who probably also have self-doubts and take it out on others who dare, like you.

Or you look at art you admire and tell yourself “I could never do anything this good” so you don’t do anything at all.

But pretty much everyone started with stick figures, weird perspective building and googly eyes.

What to do? Use this advice from Andy Warhol.

“Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art.”

He also said a lot of other good things but I think this is the best place to start.

So…dive in!
