Show Notes
This week, we talk about the question: when is something good enough? This came about because I’ve been struggling to make some decisions around my signature course, Modern Mixed Media.
We talk about the urge to keep improving and levelling up, and how this can sometimes be counter-productive. Sometimes, what we really need is to give ourselves permission to let something be what it was and be okay with moving on to what comes next.
This can also apply to older bodies of artwork and other creative projects. We hope it gives you some food for thought around when to keep working on something — and when to let it be.
