This is my very first post. I have always wanted to start a blog but just not sure how to do it. Well I guess this is how I start, by just clicking on ‘create post’ and starting a post!
I have lots of anxiety about this, it’s something that’s constantly on my mind and I guess I have a lot of ideas for and worries about. So I suppose writing first about what I hope this will be in the future can get me going! Building this as a habit and consistently working on it to make it better.
I find that starting it and writing out what I think has been very helping and I can just feel my fears melting away, from all that anticipation. It really is no big deal and I feel I am no longer fearful once I face it. I feel calm and at peace knowing that I am writing this now.
One of the things I’m afraid of is that I like so many different things and sometimes I really don’t know where to start. I really just want this to be an expression of me and what I’m about and be really authentic and true to myself. Having the confidence to believe in what I know to be true and having the courage to express that will be one of the hardest.
Through out this blog, I hope to document my trials and tribulations, of the projects I wanted to start but never could stay committed to it and show you guys what it’s like on my journey.
I have had anxiety for such a long time, lots of negativity and I just really want to build my mindset into a healthy one and slowly be able to put less weight on my inner critic and encourage myself to take the first step.
New beginnings
I want this blog to be about a documentation of my journey in my projects. Some of the things I want to get started in are (1) photography, (2) art/ illustration, (3) pottery, (4) makeup, (5) fashion.
So in (1) photography I’m curious about film photography and polaroids, as well as digital photography both in showcasing fashion, food and lifestyle.
In (2) art/illustration I am going both ways, one in fashion illustration and the other in wall art. Both of which can be used in packaging design and advertising campaigns.
(3) Pottery is a new interest that I wanted to explore, it’s not as invested as the others but I’d like to make a few pieces and sell them. Just something as a hands on creation process that is uniquely mine without any significant training in pottery. Sometimes I like that handmade look where you don’t want perfection, you want your own unique handprint on it.
I’ve always wanted to do (4) makeup about 4 years ago, but never did anything. If it’s a goal I will start it and keep going, not like I want to become a makeup artist, but just enough to do my own makeup and take fashion and beauty photos.
And finally (5) fashion, my first love – it’s not necessary something I might enjoy naturally because I still need to train more in it, but I enjoy good outfits and photographing it. Eventually I will have a high end luxury label.
All in all, my aim is to create things and stay creative as an expression of myself.
