I've been drawing a lot, lately, and it makes me appreciate even more when I see someone with skill and such an eye for detail :) Striving for perfection has its good side, encouraging us to overcome challenges like those of Nauthiz, but as you say, it can be its own challenge, too. Glad you found a good balance today :)Inner Whispershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04577110987784585986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-2842132983770950282015-05-28T13:45:56.452+02:002015-05-28T13:45:56.452+02:00Thanks Margo!
