Art is hard. It’s a process and a journey. There are obstacles and hurdles, but I find that the end result is satisfying and worth the hard work. My plans changed a lot while working on my paintings. I decided to stray away from inspiring them solely on the BE concepts or the WINGS films and do more what I feel does well to represent each member. Sometimes I didn’t have a concrete sketch or idea of how the painting will be and just winged it, but other times I did a complete sketch and planned it out. I found out that both ways worked for me, as I’m happy with all the end results. So far I’ve completed 3 paintings, and I’m working on my fourth painting. Something that I found hard was trying to incorporate different things and having them blend in and work well. Finding what I want to base my paintings on and bringing them together in one painting was a struggle. Sometimes I had too many things I wanted to incorporate, and other times I didn’t have enough, or I was stuck on what to add exactly. I have mixed feelings towards my art. I have so many other ideas that I think, ‘oh this was much better, I should’ve done this instead,’ but that’s not very professional and it isn’t what I set out to do. The struggle helps me. Struggling with your art is one of the ways you can grow with it, and I feel like when you struggle, you find solutions and ideas to help you. To wrap it up, the process hasn’t been easy, it’s been difficult and I’ve wanted to give up many times, but thinking about the end result and the satisfaction, and how good the hard work will pay off, keeps me going.
