With this sketch, I attempted to take my time, something I personally have difficulty with. Usually I get antsy and find my focus wavering so instead of taking breaks, I just hastily finish. Which later ensues a disappointing sketch and a frustrated artist behind.
So I found something I love, a lotus, fun fact: I have it tattooed on my back, it’s my favorite flower, and force myself to challenge myself with making as many different patterns on each petal.
I have to say, disciplining myself was the hardest part. Telling myself it was okay to pause and take a break was hard at times, but it was worth it.
Upon finishing, I did not feel disappointment, rather a sense of progress in my training. Here’s to a long journey ahead. It’s the small mile stones!
