Ok I call be slow, but I just learned something new.

If you are having trouble with symmetry - look from right to left, and draw from right to left. With faces, draw the eye closer to your right first. If makes things soo much easier, and feels very weird in the brain (maybe 'cause I'm old). But this thing it totally new perspective for me. As a leftie, I should be reading right to left, I wonder the worlds look different...

But wow, total complete freedom. Yes I can finally SEE what I'm doing :-D

It's been a year since the "When Will I See?" journal entry. Don't write that often, yet a WHOLE YEAR has passed so quickly.

And I am back with the same confusion- When will I see? Quite disturbing to have to remove two pages of work from the gallery today, work that seemed to be right, and now screams with wrong in every way minus the messages behind it. Is it bad to say? Do I have to pretend I am confident in everything I do :-/

Well there HAVE been major improvements, still strange how perception is altered with experience.

Just please don't say you like something because you want to be nice, say it when you mean it, but let me know if something looks off - I'd really appreciate that.

I know I'm not perfect, but I will get closer to it.



Thanks for all of your support and encouragement,

I am BLIND!

Cleaned up my gallery a bit, removed over 20 deviations, left some for respect.

I feel like I will always be blind. Whatever I produce now will look good and right, but wait for a couple of months to pass, and they become embarrassingly hideous. Things I thought improved my drawings (such as using particular colors) are wrong, crooked everything...looking at them, I hear something screaming "mistake!"

It's good and bad.

Good because it means I am making progress.

Bad because these "mistakes" also looked right months ago, and I was having same thoughts. I'll die if I look at my current art with hatred 6 months from now, because then I am stuck in continuous...blindness.
