#1 Way to Build Confidence as an Abstract Artist | Creative Risk Tolerance

Do you envy other artists who seem to be fearless when it comes to their creative process? Do you ever stop yourself from making bold moves in your abstract art because you're afraid of ruining it? The secret to increasing your creative risk tolerance is simple: take one step too far on purpose. In this video, I’ll show you how intentionally pushing past your comfort zone—making that one extra brushstroke, adding an unexpected color, or covering something you love—can help you build confidence and overcome the fear of "messing up." By practicing this approach regularly, you’ll realize that taking risks in your mixed media art doesn’t lead to disaster—it actually helps you discover new possibilities, embrace imperfections, and develop a fearless creative process. Over time, your ability to trust your intuition and let go of perfectionism will grow, making bold decisions feel natural instead of scary. If you want to loosen up, take more risks, and create with more freedom, this video is for you! Comments, questions, and shares are always welcome and appreciated - Thank you for watching!
