ART CANNOT BE JUDGED

I'm finding this difficult, keeping up this blog. I haven't posted forever! Finding it hard to do without a computer and only have my iPad. So maybe for now I can just write.
This past weekend I went to a Scrapbook Expo with my friend Pam. We had a wonderful time! Our friend Sharon met us there. Sharon had never been there before. She draws, and very well I might add. She even won the door prize which was $100 in show-bucks! She spent it all in the Stampers Anonymous booth! She had never seen Tim Holtz products before but she was SOLD😄! Legs and feet got tired so we needed a break. After finding a place to sit in the cafeteria or dining room, we did a little  " show n tell"  of all we bought and then Sharon told me something that really struck a cord with me. Simple words but powerful indeed. Something I really needed to hear.
She said,  "Art Cannot Be Judged!"
I'm like...wait a minute. I make cards and if anyone is interested in buying them I'll sell them. But I've had (one lady in particular) say my card was so-so.😭 It hurt me deeply. I won't make cards for her anymore but I'm afraid to make them for anyone now. Sharon said that she draws and some will look at the drawing and says  'this part doesn't look right' or something like that. Sharon says  "No, this is actually what it looks like to ME."  We don't all see things the same! And it doesn't matter. We should not judge ourselves or  judge others either. I make cards the way I see the design in my own mind.  Great and powerful words to meditate on... "ART CANNOT BE JUDGED".
