There are a few guidelines I live by and I share with my students before painting even begins.  I will now share these with you.

Starting a painting, especially as a beginner, can sometimes be a daunting prospect.

All kinds of doubts arise and you wonder if you can do this.

So my first suggestion before painting is to

BLESS YOURSELF!

Tell yourself that you are an artist here to learn and create.

It is a process to be enjoyed. There are only positive thoughts allowed.

If you think you can, you can!
