After reading the article I found myself agreeing with Lindsay B. Just this weekend I came to the realization that I find it hard to make artwork for others. My motivation unfortunately takes a steep decline and I put it off for as long as possible. My mom wants me to make two more paintings like the one I made of myself but of my sisters to hang up in our living room. My mom has also told me shes going to hang up literally every painting I have made the last few months. I think for me, the question of the painting is what is most exhilarating to me. When I am asked to recreate an image for someone else there is always the other persons reaction and expectation to worry about.

I have been bridging my landscape and portraits together in a dreamy and enchanted way and I really like how they’re coming out!
