Some holiday hand lettering in my art studio. |
My 6th most popular post of 2014 was "The Art Of Hand Lettering", another from my Create Art Every Day challenge.
I was a little hesitant to write about my adventures in hand lettering because there are many people out there who do it more beautifully than I do. But let's face it, if I had to be an expert at something in order to blog about it, this blog would not exist.
As a recovering perfectionist it is imperative that I don't dwell on comparisons between myself and other artists, bloggers or anyone for that matter. Instead, if I start to feel envious of someone else's talents or achievements, I will just adopt that person as a role model. I will look into their story and see what I can learn from it that applies to my own creative journey. It is rare that I find anyone who was born instantly talented and successful. In fact, I usually find that it's taken a lot of hard work, perseverance and courage for the people I admire to get to where they are in life. This inspires me and motivates me to keep going.
As for hand lettering, I may never be an expert at it but I still enjoy it and I think that's a good enough reason to keep doing it and sharing it with you.
