Self portrait
Hello everyone! I hope you're all finding a way to be creative today! I started this last night (and stayed up way too late working on it) and it's the first self portrait that I've ever made. It's not finished but I am very happy with it so far. If anyone has made one of themselves, whether realism or abstract, please post below. I would love to see them. If you've never made one, give it a try! Who knows you better than you?

I started a painting today, thought it started out really well and got excited! Then somehow it went downhill and I ended up paining over it completely. See my ‘progress’ and laugh with me about it. Do I deserve a glass of wine now?

@Amy Rumble I used to focus on psychology alone, but I’ve learned that I’m A far happier person and better psychologist when I practice what I preach: do what you love! Ps: love your artwork!!
🎙️ We’re starting a podcast! — and we need you.
Hi Messy Art Squat! @artbyrebeccaknoerr and I are doing this thing. 🎉 We are starting a podcast. For artists who color outside the lines, start over, make messes, and keep going anyway. 🎨 But first — what should we call it? And what do you actually want to hear us talk about? Pitch us your topics, your burning questions, your “I wish someone would just talk about THIS” moments. We’re listening. Literally. 🎧👇

I’d love to hear other artist talk about their journey and how and when they started to call themselves artists!
