I talked briefly about it in yesterday’s Wishcasting Wednesday article.
I recently finished an artwork I REALLY like. I know it may not please everybody, but I don’t care now, because it’s what my Soul wanted me to create and I went for it without hesitation (or almost).
I told you that its title came while I was writing my wish: daring chasing for my Dream no matter what people think, no matter what my Gremlins told me, no matter what I may fear.
How many times did you think that you were too dreamy ? that you were dreaming too big ? that you were not worthy for achieving this particular dream you had ? that is was too big for you but not for someone else ?
AND how many times somebody (a friend ? a family member ? a teacher ? a boss ?… the list is endless) that you will never succeed making a living from this passion, that it was too time consuming, that it was a waste of time, or whatever negative talk possible ?
I’d like just to remind you that YOU ARE WORTHY (oh I typed “your art worthy, oops ;)). It is never too late; you can achieve your dream at any age.
I am nearly 25. I really started created like… 5 years ago. And just for fun because I wanted to paint something to decorate our appartment, and then the passion grew bigger and bigger.
When I look at this artwork, I think “I found my Voice & my Style“. And it reminds me that yes, I am a dreamer, but I’m not the only one (heehee) and that it’s never too late to dream big. And that it’s not because it’s not conventional that it worths less than somebody else’s artwork.
Of course, I’d love to sell my artwork and to make someone else’s heart sing with it… I’d lie saying I don’t care about this point.
Do you chase for your Dream(s) ? What blocks you to do so, if not ?
Take some time to think about it…
And here is the whole artwork (it’s measures 16×20 inches) (the photo is not good, I’ll ask my husband to take a better one asap):
NOTE: I hesitate drawing her a mouth or not… if I do, it’ll be a “stiched” mouth, not a “real” mouth. I like what my Husband told me “does she not have a mouth because everything happens in her own mind ??” 😉
