I wanted to cry 😮

It’s still sinking in Hi {NAME}, I recently did something really scary. I asked my School members and former members to answer a survey about their experiences of my online School. 🙀 It’s something I’d been wanting to do for years, always after the next development I had in the pipeline. But I’ve realised something: There will never be a ‘perfect’ time. The School is like a painting that’s never quite finished. There’s always more I want to add. 🖌️ And to make sure I’m serving my community in the best and most relevant way I possibly can, I needed to ask for feedback now. After hitting the ‘send’ button, I felt butterflies in my tummy. It felt like I was 15 again and about to receive my School report. For a couple of days, I couldn’t bring myself to look at the survey results. 🙈 When I did, I wanted to cry. 90% of everyone who responded said the School has improved their painting skills 89% credited the School with helping them to ‘see’ like an artist 88% said the School has built their confidence in their painting skills 88% said that their School membership increased the joy they find in painting. Wow. I’m still taking that in. I’ve poured my heart and soul into the School for over 7 years, so I can’t begin to express to you how much that feedback means to me. 💖 {NAME}, I would love to support your creative growth too.
