On Self Criticism

This last week I was listening to an episode Kevin Smith’s podcast where he interviewed Gerard and Mikey Way from My Chemical Romance. The interview is five years old, but one thing I took away from it was something Kevin Smith said about the artistic brain. Something to the effect of the same imagination that can make up stories about life, can also make up stories about our own work. Your imaginative, creative mind will tell you that everything you create sucks. That you’re terrible at what you do. But, these are just more stories from your artist’s brain. Something to consider the next time you look at your art and decide you have no talent. ❤️
