It is also really hard to create, especially when most of us release what we create into the world for critique, sometimes within minutes of creating it. Instead of seeing a space filled with other creative people who are also sharing art, we start to compare. We start to doubt the very thing that brought us so much joy.
We start to doubt the very reason we stuck with our artistic journey in the first place.

We are not generally viewing each other’s art in a coffee shop or on the walls of a museum. Instead we are sending image after image into our social world for immediate approval (or gasp! disapproval!). I cannot think of a a more terrifying way to share what you create!
