Watercolor and pen on paper.

I picked these colors because of a color prompt. The color Burnt Sienna wasn’t in my rotation I gravitated towards typically and I didn’t want to work with it. Pushing oneself to grow creatively means facing the self doubt we create in our mind. Will I completely fail if I use this palette? Am I even an artist if I can’t use this color? Will everyone else think I’m a phony if I can’t deliver? These are real questions that sound reasonable in my head until I write them out. The name of this piece, “If Not, No Worries” remarks on the making ourselves small to avoid criticism, even if it’s self generated or imagined.
