Over three years ago I set out to learn how to draw and paint faces. I used to tell myself that I couldn’t do it. The first few were lopsided and wonky but I kept practicing. Now I love it. Keep going with the things you want to do in this world. Don’t believe the gremlins inside of you saying you can’t do it. In honour of international women’s day this past week I want to thank all the women in history that paved the way for myself and my daughters.
Quotes from some of my favourite women painters and writers:
“Feet what do I need you for when I have wings to fly. “Frida Kahlo
“I have been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and I have never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.” Georgia O’Keefe
“Something has called out of somewhere and something in me is trying to answer.” Emily Carr
“Alone we can do so little together we can do so much.” Helen Keller
