Today's Message: Do it my way!
Recently several of my art instructors repeatedly kept telling me to "keep on doing what you are doing". I wanted to learn to do something different. However, they were trying to tell me I need to perfect my own special technique. What I am doing is my own unique expression of what I see, I just need to keep doing more of it and improving on it instead of trying to change it. How often we want to do something to please others or do something like someone else rather than do what we love and do it our way. I will try to remember to continue to "Do it my way!"

Thoughts worth pondering:
