I want to confidently branch out and try new things. I want to grow with confidence and with a smile on my face. I&#39;ve got plenty of artistic insecurity, trust me&#8230;and sometimes I&#39;m my own biggest critic and obstacle (geez, aren&#39;t we all? Why do we do that to ourselves?). Some things I don&#39;t even try because I&#39;ve told myself I can&#39;t do that. This year I&#39;m banishing that type of thinking.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is making art saves me. Making art is a compulsion I have. I must do it. I&#39;m happy when I do it. And I&#39;m even happy when I&#39;m making crappy art&#8230;lol. The process, not the end product, has so much value.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#39;s to a confident 2011!<\/p>\n<p><input id=\"gwProxy\" type=\"hidden\" \/><input id=\"jsProxy\" onclick=\"if(typeof(jsCall)==&#39;function&#39;){jsCall();}else{setTimeout(&#39;jsCall()&#39;,500);}\" type=\"hidden\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over at Creative Therapy (where the guest is the awesome Katie Kendrick!!), we&#39;re making art that highlights our &quot;One Little&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2041"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2041\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
