“Have no fear of perfection, you'll never reach it.” Salvador Dali
Well, as I upload these photos, I am once again deeply impressed by the work of all my students! Several of you have requested the quote that I read to you regarding perfectionism. You will find that quote after the last photo.

Being a perfectionist is not
about being the best we can be, it is actually going about to prove that
nothing we ever do is ‘good enough’. It
is listening to the voice from within or (maybe a voice from the past) that
says, “You’re doing it all wrong. So,
you do it over and over again until you ‘get it right’ and ultimately, you
never do and thus you are never satisfied.
You have only proven that nothing you ever do is good enough. - author not sure
Striving for excellence is
about putting our hand to something, with all our human limitations we press
on, we grow. Striving for excellence in
art is about expressing yourself using your God given talent, having fun while
doing it, and discovering how to be able to put the brush down after your last
stroke, exhale, and smile while saying, “It is finished”. - Jill Saur
