Squee! New toys! I just did a Doodlecam demonstrating my charter run of my brand new Winsor & Newton watercolor markers!
My gremlins told me what I was doing SUCKED, but that’s what my gremlins always say (hey, it’s their job–they’re trying to keep me safe, bless their little hearts). I just kept at it, and by the time I got to this point (still a work in progress), I was having FUN!
Next step: order a white Gelli pen. I definitely want one for some highlighting as this piece progresses.
Lesson from today’s Doodlecam: remember Creative Sandbox Way Guidepost #8: Dismiss all gremlins!
Of course, they won’t listen. They will sneak into your Creative Sandbox and try to convince you they are the Voice of Truth, the Voice of Wisdom, and the Voice of Reason, because gremlins exist to try to keep you safely inside your comfort zone.
But creativity and growth only and always happen OUTSIDE your comfort zone, in the zone of uncertainty!
So your job is to get good at recognizing the many disguises your gremlins wear, and when they appear, send them off to get a pedicure! ?
