In my art classes during college, there were many times where my teacher would encourage me to "paint over" what I had already worked on or "start again". All the hard work and hours that I have just put into this??? Are you KIDDING me???? But inevitably, this brought about a stronger, more creative final product. Yes, it was painful and almost humiliating to have put forth SO much effort into a piece only to have to begin all over again. Each time, I put a bit of what I had learned with the first piece together with inspirations from the current class room and my own life's teachings into a new and improved product. Yesterday, after a long day of painful admissions and unjust labels, I knew it was time to begin to paint over my cluttered and complicated canvas. Through tears and tremendous anxieties, new colors and techniques are beginning to materialize.
