That is a great way to look at it!

It’s always hard to get through the mental block of comparing oneself to others (or your own art to another’s), but I really really like how you said the process of discovering the beauty in anything. I need to internalize that and push away the perfectionism that says I could (should) do better. That doesn’t matter, anything can be beautiful, and there’s no good reason to discredit something just because you’re still in the process of learning (or self improving)

Thank you, I’ll definitely be stealing this way of explaining what I’ve been trying to put into words
