Art Fail! This Is The Ugliest Work I’ve Ever Made

Hey art lovers!

Watch as I try to work it out and maybe even turn it into something beautiful. Stick around for the raw, unfiltered process of dealing with creative struggles and see if I can salvage this disaster.

I think you pulled it back from the edge of extinction in a glorious manner! Thank you for showing the real struggle we all go through. When you pulled the line stencil out, I knew Victory was all but assured.

[@MixedMediaArtByTrina]

Thank you! That stencil is magical. Haha! I think it’s important to share the struggles. That’s how I learn and it’s part of the process. 😍

Persistence is everything! It got so much better in the last few minutes, despite a few things being uncooperative early on. My mantra when this happens is “you’re either winning or you’re learning”. And we all have days where there’s a LOT more learning going on than we’d ideally Iike 😂

[@MixedMediaArtByTrina]

So true. One thing I’ve learned from making these videos is to push through the ugly stage. Haha! 🤣

[@kcinca5410]

A bit like the "awkward" stage during the tween or teenage years (well, let's be honest sometimes it lasts longer than that). Eventually you grow out of it and emerge like a beautiful butterfly. Love seeing your process.

[@MixedMediaArtByTrina]

I love this analogy! Haha! Thanks my friend. 😍

Hi Trina! I took a screenshot and then rotated the print and it looks awesome either vertical positions and flipped upside down - you might like it better from a different orientation 🤷‍♀️ Always a fun time watching & listening to you!

[@MixedMediaArtByTrina]

Oh I love that! I think you’re right! 😍

@@MixedMediaArtByTrina When in doubt “stand on your head & look at differently”! LOL!

It was hard to imagine where this piece was going but you brought it around…as usual! When you put down the black paint and the image and had excess paint …pick up the excess with another sheet of paper. Could throw down a stencil or carve lines into it just to get a little something and save paint and have some collage fodder. Just an fyi…

[@MixedMediaArtByTrina]

There was a point where I almost gave up but I’m glad I worked through and got a decent result. Great tip about the paper. Thanks! 😍

[@maryellenrichards391]

You said you learned this technique from Jackie Bernardo. Is there a chance you could link that video for us?

[@MixedMediaArtByTrina]

Absolutely! Here’s Jackie’s video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmXJfnierdhspLMsi=gMSsHMZdWB90MlA9

I like the final result. Bold! Thanks for showing this.

Thank you! Cheers!😍
