To be an artist is the most rewarding and scary journey one can take in life.

You put your faith totally in God’s hand. I have come to the realization that if God has trusted me enough to give me the talent, then all I can do is to trust Him to develop and share my talent with others and to serve them through my art.

I tell you it is not always a smooth path.
Creativity requires you to surrender - to become vulnerable as you put a part of yourself into your art work.

Monday I almost quit on my art work. Everything were just too much for me to handle. I couldn’t draw at all during my art classes. Not because of the lack of talent, but the lack of believing in myself and comparing myself with others and listen to their comments about my art. During the past weeks - Some laughed at my art work, others told me it looked good.

I had to dug deep into myself & moved again out of my head into my heart. This morning I had the desire again to continue with my LET GO art work, and learnt my own lesson of letting go in the process.

Whatever you ate going through now, I pray that you will also learn of what to let go off, in order for you to move on and to be blessed in your life.

Good day, everyone! This piece is being created entirely with graphite, and every stage of the process keeps reminding me why I fell in love with art in the first place.

A lot of people only see the final result, but there’s so much patience that goes into every single section before it starts to look complete. Sanet Badenhorst Sanet Badenhorst ArtPieter van der Merwe Art

If it is not enough working on an elephant, I’ve decided to start another new drawing. This one has a deeper meaning and believe that other people would be able to relate to this image. I have title it “Let Go”.
This is part of my Scared Reflection series of my artwork.
Let me know what you need to let go of in your life?

The past week I’ve spent some time with my overseas family and it was so lovely to see everybody again and making new memories.

Now I’m back at the drawing board and here is current progress on my elephant image.
