Let me just explain why I wanted to talk about this. I think it’s very important to not just show others how much you’ve succeeded but to also show any failures along the way because at the end of the day, we’re all just human right? And as much success we may find along our journey, we'll find just as many if not more stories of "failure" (aka lessons) along the way.
I was in a major art funk, especially in regards to my oil pieces, since November 2018. And this time, it didn’t happen out of the blue, something- a lesson- is what set it off. And I say "this time" because there have been plenty of times, as I’m sure it happens to many of us, that I’ve just woken up and was suddenly and completely out of inspiration and enthusiasm to get back to it, but this time wasn't it. So I’ll start from the beginning but I won’t tell you the story in full because I don’t want to bore you with all of the details. Pretty much: I currently reside in Norway, which isn’t the easiest country to become an "established" artist. Now, I’m not going to sugarcoat my experience and make what I’ve learned and have gone through seem like it was easy-peasy and the happiest moments of my life because truth of the matter is that it wasn’t. I want to be very transparent here with this blog and these writings I’m sharing with you because I find honesty to be one of the most important building blocks in a healthy relationship. And yes, if you’ve signed up to my newsletter or check out this blog from time to time, I absolutely consider this a relationship now.
