✨🤍I feel so grateful to be an artist for a living.🤍✨.
Our job only gets boring or exhausting if you let it.

On the flip side, if you look for it, our job can be so invigorating and inspiring and rewarding!

I can’t express to you enough how important it is to not only take pictures of your finished work but don’t forget the processing pics too!

You don’t even have to post them if you don’t want, but keep them as progress picture!

Make a file on your phone for each category, finished looks and processing.

Just like a fitness journey, progress pictures can show you things you don’t see day to day.

Over time your painting will change.

You’ll learn new techniques and gain confidence in your stroke.

You can see that more clearly when you take processing pictures regularly and look back at them!

Now keep in mind your painting might and probably should look different on each beautiful client, because as we all know, different painting techniques create different looks.

But it’s fun to see how your overall vibe, style and technical skill changes and grows over time.

Lately I’ve been favoring bolder pieces with a soft blend.

My clients have been loving it for longevity between appointments and the sass factor it gives them to have those bolder “pop” pieces.

Might be time to get to filming again!

What have you seen change in your painting lately?
