Painting a pretty picture....

I love to paint. It has taken me so long to jump on the courage and ride it to this point in my artistic awareness. I had such an inferiority complex with my artwork. Everyone else seemed so much more talented. It has only been in the last year that I just literally said "Fuck it!" Everyone else does not do MY artwork... they are talented in THEIR artwork. Each person has a brain of their own, and can create something extremely different but equally as beautiful as the next artist. When I think of the years that I have wasted worrying that I couldn't properly express the feeling I had inside me onto canvas.... I am sad for the beautiful creations I have missed out on. Everything is a learning experience though. So... no regrets. I am just happy that I have allowed my creativity to burst from it's little protective bubble. My paintings are beautiful. I know they are... I have talent; and I am confident enough to say so.
