If you hear a voice within you say

“You cannot paint”,

then by all means paint,

and that voice will be silenced.

@maija_karolina and @runawilhelmina, two of my lon @maija_karolina and @runawilhelmina, two of my long-term students are really getting amazing results with this bird painting. 

Each painting we do in my class holds different lessons. 

The spring semester is now open for registration at www.artescapestudios.dk or www.idaglad.com

And my youngest student Mira learned a new drawing technique (she is not normally in my class but yesterday she came with mommy at work ❤️)

The last couple of days I have had a few conversat The last couple of days I have had a few conversations about this topic. 

The way we judge and who we judge, says more about who we are than the person we judge. 

People who know how to work with their own shadow are aware of this and use it actively to grow in life. 

It’s basically about becoming aware of when, why and how you judge. 

And judging isn’t the same as seeing something. Negative judging has a hostile energy behind it. 

But positive judging is a thing too. It can feel very strange to be put on a pedestal by other people, because if there is honest self-awareness, we know very well that we contain both darkness and light.

I don’t know why but every time I sit down to work on it, it activates everything within me, so often I avoid it for many weeks/months. Now I really just want to finish it. Either I finish it within the next couple of months or I don’t finish it at all.

I liked this quote...so high expectations we have I liked this quote...so high expectations we have of ourselves, expecting to achieve perfection right from the beginning. 

Perfectionism is a beginners trade. The experienced practitioner knows that it’s all just a matter of practice. 

Moving from perfectionist to practitioner is a beautiful part of the journey. 

I have only just recently entered that understanding in my own creative practice, after having been caught up in the tight grib of perfectionism for so many years.

Don’t wait for your inner critic to disappear - Don’t wait for your inner critic to disappear - Act upon your creative dreams anyway and it will lose it’s power over you - it WILL get easier over time.

Beautiful @runawilhelmina and I had a great conversation tonight after class about how the inner self-critical beliefs can sometimes lead us to put aside our creativity and quiet down our dreams. We also talked about how hard it can be to juggle creative aspirations and motherhood at the same time. 

The cure for this is to just take some small steps. Sometimes it’s just picking up that paintbrush. 

Yesterday I posed about how I sat down to paint and didn’t do anything for 5 hours, but still I showed up and that’s all you need to do. Show up for yourself a little bit everyday. 

@runawilhelmina is taking my watercolor class. She has two small kids at home, yet she find the energy to show up to class with so much passion and courage to learn. 

All my students inspires me a lot and she inspire me in particular with her always well organized art-material 🎨

Making mistakes is how I learned to paint. I have Making mistakes is how I learned to paint. I have discarded so many paintings during the last 10 years and accepted long time ago that it’s a part of the process of learning new techniques. If I’m getting to attached to a painting it usually doesn’t end so well. Perfectionism and fear can take over easily. Painting is such a deep soul practice and a really great way to get to know yourself. Right now I’m in the process of exploring abstract watercolor. It’s a lot of fun and very exiting.
