"A bunch of tulips in the black backround"


This drawing depicts a bunch of tulips in the black and blue background. It was done according to a long postcard, quite expensive. What would I say about this picture? Actually, it's sort of unfinished, but what I'm fond of is the colours which are luminous to me. I like tulips a lot but here they are not as splendid as they should be. Maybe I'm too ambitious. What do you think?
What does Pawlikowska say about being ambitious? Well, the warrior is never too ambitious. He knows his abilities and skills. His goals are always feasable. He never sets "exaggerated aims". What Pawlikowska emphasizes is that you should set feasable goals and try to reach it step by step. Each day is closer to reaching that goal. Even if you fail to do something perfectly, say to yourself that you've done something as best as you could. There is no point in finding faults with yourself. Nobody is perfect. Being perfect is harmful 'cause you over estimate your skills.
I must say that I'm a perfectionist in a way.There are so many things I would like to do perfectly. Drawing is one of them. What I like in Pawlikowska is that she enjoys being herself. She also draws small pictures and inserts them in her books. They are sweet ones. If you want to look at them, check her site www.oliwkowo.pl. I must learn constantly one thing that there is no use in comparing oneself to others.
Today a new piece of thought by P. Coelho:" For the warrior of light more important from a goal itself is reaching it. Life leads him from one unknown to the other. Each moment is a miraculous secret. The warrior doesn't know where he comes from nor where he aims at."
P.S. I stopped drawing. Today, I will give myself another chance.
Have nice day, Ela.
