Learning To See

The struggle of any artist is to keep perspective.  Too confident, and you never grow.  Too doubtful, and you never try.

I believe that it is okay to be your own worst critic – that means you are always exceeding the expectations of others.  But that inner critique needs to be honest about both the good and bad aspects of your work.  And eventually you need to put the critic aside and say “this is as good as it can be, for now.”
