This is my first ever painting. Wrong paper, wrong brush, wrong ink.
Firsts are always difficult.
Each attempt should be memorialized as either a lesson or a success.
Perhaps both.
There is no shame in trying. If at first you don’t succeed, try…try again.
I look back at it and think where did I ever get the courage to try?
There is truly a fine line between bravery and stupidity.
I will take bravery and keep moving forward trying again and again until success.
As with all things we want to excel at, practice, patience, and fortitude.
I hope you have the courage to try something new.
加油!



Keep going!
Too many halves. You learn best from making mistakes. Each mistake is a lesson. I like the alchemist line that talks about beginners luck as the universe giving you luck in a new task to inspire you to keep trying.
