what to do when it gets hard.

Sometimes it gets hard. It gets really really hard.

That is a fact of life.

That happens.

Just like that.

You sit down to handle your business thinking that this is going to be a smooth ride, but it's not. It's doesn't always go down like that. Sometimes, the going down is just not that simple.

What you've got to do, when it gets hard, is this:

You gotta push through it. You've got to push through. Just stick it out, keep on riding - pace yourself - and push through.

You'll come around. If you try your best and keep your eyes on the prize, you can stick it.

I didn't have a pose in mind tonight, i was just painting blobs as usual, and then i this came out - it was really hard, but i pushed through and the piece looks decent. i think it's good to not shy away from something just because it's a little rough.

art is usually fun, but that doesn't mean that art is usually easy.


be seeing you,
