I'm really self conscious and trying desperately to overcome alot of insecurities.

I have the attention span of a mosquito, so I bounce from project to project.

If I use pencil, I'll never finish because it's never good enough.

I've found that with ink, I can better find a stopping point and not get absorbed into perfection.
