Do
you ever doubt your creativity or your artwork? Do you get so
insecure that you're afraid to even put the pen down on the paper,
for fear you'll make a mistake? If so, then read on.
Most
artists and craftspeople – even “professional” ones – have
periods of self-doubt, so don't feel like you are alone! But what
gets me through the dry times is the fact that I know I was made to
create. God put the passion to create in me, and I know when I am
making things, I'm expressing his love for me. When I am secure in
his love, I am secure in my art.
Trust me, I've been fighting self-doubt for three years, but I know now that this #artworship is the path God has chosen for me and he has this CRAZY LOVE for me and also FOR YOU!!! So, I can tell you that I
know it's easier said than done.
That's why I'm so excited about
Truth Scrap, an online event that is exploring the intersection
between faith and art. Seven instructors (including me!) are offering
a glimpse into not only HOW they create their artwork, but WHY. From
Bible journaling to mixed-media, you'll learn details about creating
projects from the heart up.
My
friend Lain Ehmann has pulled together SEVEN top-notch instructors
(including me!) to present the absolute best in faith-based crafting
education, and it's coming to you LIVE on January 31. But forget
about packing up your paper, inks, trimmers and paint – this is
delivered right to your computer!
If
you haven't already checked out the lineup for this event, please
head over here right now and see what's in store:
TRUTH SCRAP 2015: Intersecting Faith and Art
In
this one-day event, you'll learn new skills and techniques and
discover fantastic ideas for gaining more confidence in your artwork
and crafting, and for sharing your faith through your creations. This
is truly a one-of-a-kind event, and I hope you'll join in.
Here's an example of what my class will look like. I recently got to do an art piece for the cover of my church's quarterly magazine. Talk about nervous nelly and self-doubt. You have no idea how nervous I was, LOL! It was fun to see one of my art pieces outside of my journal and I love how God spoke through me in creating. It was truly art worship with the confidence and reminder of God's amazing LOVE for me and FOR YOU! John 3:16
P.S.
Did I mention that all class replays are also provided as part of
your enrollment? That way you can watch again and again! And trust
me, you'll want to...

Yes, I often doubt myself in my artwork. And I think it happens to everyone who is associated with the arts. It is because we are all not perfect artists. No one can call himself a perfect artist. But my friend John is perfect in his dissertation writing service. I have never seen him doubt his capabilities. He can write your dissertations in a very well manner.
