But there’s a myth you’ve been led to believe for a very long time. Somehow, even though we know it’s not logical, we believe that being "good at art" is an ability reserved for gifted or talented people. But here’s the thing. If you picked up a violin right now, would you expect to be able to play Vivaldi’s Four Seasons? 🎻 When you arrive in a new country, do you expect to automatically be able to speak the language fluently? ✈️ And when you get into a swimming pool, do you expect to give an Olympic performance? 🏊‍♀️🥇 Yet when it comes to drawing and painting… We put huge and unreasonable pressure on ourselves. Only a gallery-worthy result will do. If our efforts fall short of perfection, the myth tells us we must be "bad at art". That we’re not one of the lucky few who were born with the gift of artistic ability. The trouble with this myth is that it robs us of the belief that we can learn and improve. We don’t see just how much potential we really have. So we never make a real effort to improve. And our skill level stays the same. Worse still, the myth robs us of the joy that comes from the act of making art. Because it makes us focus only on the result, and not on the most enjoyable part: the creative process itself. {NAME}, if you’ve gone through life thinking you’re one of the unlucky ones who wasn’t granted the gift of natural artistic ability, it’s time to think again. I encourage you let go of "I’m not gifted at art" Replace it with "I have the potential to become a magnificent artist" Focus on learning a reliable method, and you can make serious progress. When you learn under instruction, by taking a tried-and-tested path, the improvement you make can be rapid. 🚀 If you’re ready to reject the myth and start seeing real growth in your artistic abilities, I’m inviting you to join our online School and community with a discounted membership: Get a LIFETIME* discount of 25% off an annual subscription if you join before Sunday 26th March. *For as long as you keep your subscription going, you’ll never pay more than your special discounted rate of 25% off.
