Even though it is only day three, I didn't expect this challenge to be as difficult as it's getting to be. I find myself having to plan ahead with every shoot and when things go awry simply hope for the best. In fact, today I almost gave up because my head felt clouded with insecurity and the thought of creating something new every day felt impossible. However, because of those mind-boggling thoughts I began to feel inspired to construct this piece. I wanted to produce an image that really shed light on overwhelming nature of creating when your thoughts are clouded. It gets to a point where you begin to contemplate weather your art is worth creating, but that said, a couple weeks ago a friend reminded me that as artist's we should look at our craft as telling our story through a visual outlet. Thus, when our perspective on creating shifts, the overwhelming idea of creating merely becomes necessary since we are the only ones who truly know our stories. This challenge is allowing me to invest in my work without inhibitions, I'm no longer creating pieces search of validation from others, I'm simply manifesting images that speak to me and presenting them as something that accurately details my current state.
