Quest for Improvement: 2008 vs. 2019 photo manipulations..
When you think you’re in a rut and feel your work isn’t good...take a look at some of the oldest pieces..yes..you have improve.

Been in a huge rut this year as far as creativity goes..the feeling that everything looks wrong and tossing file after file into the digital trashcan was real.

Sometimes...looking back at the earliest stages of photo manipulation was a must..not only photo manipulations..but art as well..it’s usually pretty hard at times to see if you’re any better than years before..comparing only your own stages of growth helps build momentum..instead of comparing yourself, your level with everyone else..there’s no reason to compare or compete with one another..when building comes from within..

Look back at the earliest stages of the work you’ve made before shutting yourself off because you’re not worthy..you’ve gone farther than you let yourself believe.
