Even though I am quite sure it was the source of my sickness, National Portfolio Day was absolutely amazing. Just the one day has opened up so many new doors for me, and made me realize that maybe, just MAYBE, my dreams aren't COMPLETE fairytales. The critics have told me that my art isn't bad, I just need more confidence in myself. Which in retrospect they have given me. I feel like everything I've wanted to live up to is falling into place. I can finally believe in me and my talents, and let them take over, because they are what will pull me through in the end!
I honestly can't wait to get started on my new and improved portfolio. In fact, I believe I will go start now. It smells muse-y outside.
