I think it is very true. You need to freely express how you feel in order to create a beautiful art.
Self conscious in art is a thing I have never felt when I was used to drawing and paintings. But, it is a nice point that I will think of.
These lines are very true, you must be self conscious no matters what you are doing aa it improves the chances of success.
Yes at times awareness can pull us down. Sure it can show us what we are capable of but with that comes pressure/ expectations and it can sometimes. Make or Break us. Depending on the task and circumstances being free from all thoughts or constraints can be a good thing.
I can totally agree to this quote. To me art is about freedom and expressing yourself naturally. Thank you for sharing this.
How we take our self consciousness matter to determine how far we grow. Lovely quote, it’s all through.
Living is the greatest art of all, wow. This is fantastic, I love it.
Very interesting quote. I agree regarding being able to experience life in many ways and letting be the art.
I think that life is an art, simply because people have different ways of seeing life in its original form, some only see it go by without creating an effect on their life and others build a healthy life and live it 100%.
Excellent quote. Not only is self-consciousness debilitating, but embracing who you are is the key to a life well lived. Very motivational. Thanks for sharing.
This is indeed very true. Self-consciousness holds a person back into blossoming into his or her fullest potential.
All arts is a freedom of expression. And so is self-consciousness. And arts is the only medium to express it.
