Do you ever feel like your work is amateur? I’ve been doing this for years and people will say it looks great, but idk. Perhaps I’m comparing myself to my inspirations but everything feels so WIP...

Never feeling like your work is good enough is a real thing I think a lot of us struggle with. Keep at it, and use those feelings as motivation to experiment, but be nice to yourself 🤍

All the time! It’s especially hard because every time you finish a project you learn something new. So, you look back at it through that lens as well. My art director likes to remind me that not every project can be on your highlight reel. Focus on the projects you really want to knock of the park, and keep steadily raising the bar for everything else. This is a journey, and each day is just about being better than the day before. Unless you just suck and everyone is lying to you 😜
