I started painting again in summer 2019, following a 39 year hiatus. I haven’t painted since high school. I just never thought I was good enough to be a real artist, so I stopped. Going to some wine and sip events early this year, I rediscovered the joy that painting brings me. I’m doing this for me, and trying very hard not to judge myself through how I perceive others view me. For now I’m following online tutorials, and it is wonderfully stress free. Maybe some day I will resume painting on my own, but not until I relearn a lot. I used to paint in oils, and while acrylics are much more practical, they don’t work the same way. I have a lot to learn about this new medium.
