Shows like Glow Up and Project Runway are so dangerous because after one episode I've dropped $200 at the store to try to revamp my look only to realize I have the fashion sense of a 12 year old boy.
Existential crisis - the real world is far too unaesthetic to draw or paint and my imagination is far too abstract. ✅
This will never work. ✅
Scrolling Pinterest for hours in search of something. Anything.✅
Found. Lots of books and a person reading. Life is beautiful. ✅
Sudden PBPA (Paralysing Blank Page Anxiety). Ask me to fill it with words and consider it done, with paint and I'll look like a deer caught in the headlights. ✅
Binge watching videos of people sketching and painting very loosely, fast and naively, trying to convince myself it's OK. ✅
It's OK. It's OK. It's OK. Right? Because I neither have the patience nor the time to do elaborate, precise drawings. ✅
IT'S OK. No one cares. I can totally do whatever I want. ✅
Irrational fear of paint setting in. ✅
Deciding to do it anyway. ✅
Realising I LOVE paint. It's the best thing ever. Not water colours though. ✅
Questioning all my life choices.✅
This is the ugliest thing anyone has ever produced. ✅
I'm the worst. Utterly useless. ✅
I HATE paint. ✅
I HATE myself. ✅
Questioning everything. ✅
Actually it's not too bad. Not great, but not a disaster either. ✅
Red makeup is not for the faint of heart. It is a bold choice, especially, when worn in such a theatrical way. Now most of us wouldn't wear this as an everyday look unless your an artistic soul. That's why I'm offering some product recommendations if you are interested in trying to recreate the look.
