I'm in pursuit of finding my tribe, my peeps.

I remember when I was going to art school how wonderful it felt to be with like minded people.  The atmosphere was energized and alive with artful vision.  Everyone had their own interpretation of the subject.  No one was wrong, but perspective may be enhanced for better quality. 

 I remember being told, that I must have loved dark chocolate as a child, because my shading was so dark.  I did love dark chocolate, and still do!  But, I was not unteachable.  I learned to lighten up.  Critiquing by the art professors was particularly hard for me.  I had just put in all this hard work and someone tells me it should be better, or this shouldn't be here, or this is not right.  REDO IT!!  What??

  Although, that was hard to take, I look back now and see the progress.  Why did I take critiques so hard?  It wasn't personal, but I guess it was to me.  There was this sense of failure, even though my grade, once done correctly, was a good one.  Why did I look at the failure and not the progress? Well, now I have a different perspective.  I see the beauty in correction.  I see the importance of being teachable...or as my niece would say, "Be Learnable"...haha~  She shall remain nameless.  lol 

    I think it was a control thing.  I didn't like being told what to do with my project.  I'm ready to find my creative tribe again.  The ones who remember staying up all night listening to Enya working on a project. haha~  The ones not afraid of a REDO!  Or the ONE!  <<< That's another story.  What is the block that doesn't allow true unconditional love? haha~

Surrender to True Love!

Release with Gratitude!

Receive with Fullness of Joy!

Blessing in Love are Abundant!

Restoration is Here!   haha~ Okay I'll stop.
