“Serenity” Painting & A 3:15 Haiku Equals Honorable Mention
I have mixed feelings about entering art shows. If validation comes from within, then the results of an art show can create counter productive emotions. The ego gets excited if you win and gets deflated when you lose. That is, until one is good with whatever happens...
Are Judgments Just Recycled Thoughts?
