Just Paint the Dam Tree.
I like to use music and a little philosophical thinking to push my self forward --a little self-hypnosis, if you will.
I feel like a little elf #WorkingOT trying to bring this painting to its final stages. I’ve been dodging things like the roof and the tree… for some reason, starting a tree scares the hell out of me. But I gotta gulp down the fears and just bring my paintbrush to canvas and move forward. #ThatsLife though right? We procrastinate on things that scare us out of a fear of failure. But why? Why must our human nature limit us. Whenever I feel a bit paralyzed to do what scares me, I think of #WilliamBlake:
“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.”
So if we remind ourselves that we’re #OnlyHuman and all share these feelings of apprehension, well then it’s not so scary. It’s something we can feel for a moment; acknowledge it’s a symptom of being human; and just move the f*** on with gettin’ to what needs gettin’. 🤣🥸❤️
I’m pumped now! 🤣 Thanks for listening. Im gonna crush this painting and put as much love as possible into so I can gift it to some amazing women. 🎄

🎶My daughter loves Papaoutai by Stromae. So to get through this dam tree, lol, I blasted this song on repeat... it's my process. 🥸

P.S. Posting this as a quick update into my crazy psyche. Let me know if you've got a process or way of thinking that gets you though your silly hang-ups.
