It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles.

When I did my blind contours I didn't really like any of them. I thought I looked silly or weird but that wasn't really what it was about, and that's not really what matters in life at all. It doesn't matter what I look like, it's whats on the inside (cliche but true). The statements are what made this piece meaningful. I'm going to continue working into this piece and making it more interesting artistically but in the end I think it will just be a cool page to add to my book.
