My second problem is that I am a perfectionist. When I know what I want to make, I don't stop working on it until it the exact way I want it to look. Tharp states this as a problem. She calls it perfectionism at the start. I know this is one of my weaknesses, so I will focus on fixing it.

Twyla Tharp
I have two main problem in the art room. The first being finding inspiration. It usually takes me to come up with ideas for art. Twyla Tharp mentions the idea of scratching. Scratching is "digging through everything to find something." I like this idea, because I have the problem of coming up with ideas. If I "dig" through everything, I can find what I think is most important, inspirational, and artistic. I think that art is definitely influenced by the world around the artist. When artists are faced with difficult times, you can see them coping in their artwork.

yes...dig, scratch, everywhere, and in every way. and i think something that might help you to battle some of that perfectionism in your finished work is to make several things at once so you can keep your energy moving from one thing to the next.
