An artist guide to believing in yourself
Believing in yourself is a powerful mindset that can lead to numerous positive outcomes and personal growth. Here are some key points on how believing in yourself pays off:
Boosts Confidence: Self-belief cultivates a strong sense of self-confidence, allowing you to tackle challenges with a positive attitude.
Encourages Taking Risks: Believing in your abilities gives you the courage to step out of your comfort zone and take calculated risks.
Fosters Resilience: Self-belief acts as a buffer against setbacks and failures. You're more likely to bounce back and learn from challenges.
Enhances Motivation: Believing in your goals and abilities fuels your motivation to work hard and stay committed, even when faced with obstacles.
Improves Performance: A positive self-image can enhance your performance by reducing self-doubt and anxiety, enabling you to perform at your best.
Attracts Opportunities: When you exude self-confidence, others are more likely to believe in your capabilities, leading to opportunities, collaborations, and partnerships.
Promotes Positive Mindset: Self-belief nurtures a positive mindset. You focus on possibilities rather than limitations, which can have a ripple effect on all areas of your life.
Facilitates Decision Making: Trusting yourself enables you to make decisions more confidently and with a clearer sense of direction.
Reduces Stress: Believing in yourself lessens the burden of self-criticism and comparison, reducing stress and promoting mental well-being.
Strengthens Relationships: When you value yourself, you tend to engage in healthier relationships based on mutual respect and self-assuredness.
Inspires Others: Your self-belief can be infectious. When others see your determination and positivity, they might be inspired to believe in themselves too.
Opens Creativity: A strong belief in your creativity allows you to explore innovative ideas without fear of judgment.
Leads to Personal Growth: Believing in yourself encourages continuous self-improvement and growth, as you strive to reach your full potential.
Builds a Strong Identity: Self-belief contributes to building a solid sense of self, helping you navigate life's challenges with a strong foundation.
Creates a Can-Do Attitude: With self-belief, you approach obstacles with a "can-do" attitude, finding solutions rather than dwelling on problems.
Remember, self-belief doesn't mean you're immune to self-doubt or challenges. It's about acknowledging those moments while still having an unwavering faith in your abilities and worth. It's a journey that requires practice and self-compassion, but the rewards in personal fulfilment and success are well worth the effort.
Artist review EyesTeethFlesh
For this issues in depth art review thread lets take you on a journey with an artist dedicating his work to Eyes Teeth and Flesh, this completely unique and original work executed in pen, marker and digital.
“I’ve been creating art in some form or another for as long as I can remember, as a child I was forever drawing and started creating digital art on my Commodore 64 when I was 8 years old. I’ve always felt a bit empty unless I’m creating something!”
“I have always been inspired and fascinated by how things work, I grew up reading encyclopaedias constantly and taking things apart, I am particularly heavily inspired by the processes in how the human body works.”
“In my early teens I discovered body horror through the films of David Cronenberg and Biomechanical art via HR Giger who really opened my eyes to the darker side of art which just sucked me in, I was instantly obsessed and that really kicked off a deep interest in art for me.”
“I actually drifted away from my personal art for a while as I pursued a career as a 3D artist specialising in real time simulation (something I still do) but started creating again as an outlet after a tough period of depression and realising I didn’t know who I was at all.”
“My approach to art is almost totally unplanned, I work with no sketches and every line I put down will be in the final piece, I find constraining myself to be an incredible catalyst for creativity and helped me start to unravel the tangled chaos in my own head.”
“In the absence of planning I create a rule set in my head for each piece that determines which forms I use, where I place them and how elements flow together which drives the “organised chaos” at the heart of my work.”
“Each piece of mine is really like a snapshot of my thoughts, feelings, fears, emotions at that time. My work is heavily driven by my lifelong struggles with ADHD, Anxiety and Depression. In a way I’m uncovering a piece and the meaning isn’t always clear until I finish the piece myself.”
“Most of my recent work is created in Pen and Marker (microns and Copic markers) on A4 paper which I find the perfect size for the level of details in my pieces, I also create in digital paintings and 3D now and again. I do consider myself a multi disciplined artist and plan to introduce more animation, sculpture and immersive works in the future!”
