Day 10 - a picture of something you wish you were better at
i have this awesome opportunity to design gowns but the problem is i'm terrible at sketching. i'm able to get the general shape down in paper but i complete biff it when it comes to the intricate details. i have all these incredible ideas and can't get over how lucky i am to get my designs actually made and *gasp!* sold to the public, but i can't freaking get them from my mind to the sketchbook! there's a massive gap in my creative process and i'm starting to really regret never taking art classes in college... or high school for that matter. in fact, the last time i sat in an art classroom was 6th grade. art used to be my passion but then i switched it over to being "smart" and "academic" and all that. art became frivolous in my mind.

and now i'm totally suffering because of it!
i have just a handful of weeks to somehow figure it out and find a way to show others all these dream dresses. because if i can, they can become real! seriously, i just can't get over how cool that is...
any tips from my dear readers??
