Fire goes out for lack of fuel,
and quarrels disappear when gossip stops.
A quarrelsome person starts fights as easily
as hot embers light charcoal or fire lights wood.
What dainty morsels rumors are -
but they sink deep into one's heart.
Proverbs 6: 20-22

Okay, now that I've got that out of my system, on to nicer subjects:

You know, I've got to stop comparing my drawings with other people's. I've never done "neat" artwork. There's something wonderfully freeing about a brush filled with color that makes me want to spread it on the canvas in a big way. When I draw, it's with the same abandon. I looked online to see what other people's EDM drawing of a wallet looked like and just had to stop because all their drawings were perfect. I know if I looked long enough I'd find someone really terrible, but then, that wouldn't be very nice, would it? :o) I draw like I draw. And, you know what? It will get better, but I'm not even as dissatisfied with my work as I was at the beginning because confidence is easing in. Ah! That's what I remember loving about the art classes I took! That moment when satisfaction slipped in and the work looked exactly as I wanted it to.
