Don't sabotage your Art Career! 🎨 Stop Being too Perfect (Perfectionism is destructive)- Episode N°1

Hi there,
let's talk about perfectionism, the way I deal with it and the way perfectionism can be a real problem especially for artists!
We need to stop being to perfect, don't you think?
As a professional artist, architectural & graphic designer, I take you inside our Washington, DC design studio to show & share the peaks & pitfalls of the creative process.
Creativity belongs to everyone! We'll use our art installations, murals and design projects to help inspire that spark in you.
Tell me how you liked our Studio and how you deal with perfectionism in the Comments!
Follow our fresh weekly films for the next year to embrace the beauty in the creative process.

[@EricSchwartz02]

Great first video. I understand the struggle of postponing because the video is “not quite ready”. Keep it up and hold yourself to that standard you set for yourself.

[@AaronScales]

Eric Schwartz Thanks Eric! I’ll keep it up. Only 48 more to go for the year goal! 🙈

[@langfordlanehome]

Inspiring...let’s go!

[@AaronScales]

Thanks Alan!! So glad you're here

[@eoredmaiden]

Word. 👍🏻

[@AaronScales]

You are a winner. Probably in life, but def in origami stickers. Shoot a mailing address to [e-mail] & wait eagerly like it's Christmas Eve.

[@thorsteinssonh]

This video presentation is a little too perfect for the message :D But I love the message, it cannot be said too many times, we typically put way to high a standard on ourselves, blocking productivity. Important to iterate, realize mistakes and repeat, repeat, ....

[@amharris1962]

Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Hope to see more of Cass, as well!

[@AaronScales]

Thank you! Cassie is very camera shy, so I have to be sneaky with the shots. Challenge accepted

[@jarosawkornata9873]

I'm in.

[@AaronScales]

Jaroslaw! You're my new favorite. Send me your mailing info to [e-mail]

[@driesketels]

Lovely video my man. Indeed sometimes it's just better to execute and post instead of too much thinking. Perfectionism is a killer. Great video, awesome channel. I feel like this video deserves so much more, waay more then 390 views. Stay connected Aaron.

[@AaronScales]

Thanks Dries! I still can't get the videos done fast enough, so I started doing a weekday livestream on Instagram instead to get over the perfectionism 😂

[@STICKYArt]

I definitely think perfection is great to strive for but does not really exist! It all about finding the balance that works for you!

[@AaronScales]

STICKYArt Channel thanks Sticky- I think you’re right. I think we definitely want to create with a sense of excellence, but I may hover on the edge of obsessing a little too often 😂

[@tylermcintosh8161]

I’m totally following from this point on!!!

[@AaronScales]

Bro! Thanks so much. Got some new stuff coming down the pipeline

[@AaronScales]

Tyler McIntosh just posted a new vid, but I’m also doing a daily art livestream at 6:30p EST on Instagram @thebrocoloco too

[@tylermcintosh8161]

Aaron Scales I have been trying to watch for a few days now and are loving them!

[@AaronScales]

@@tylermcintosh8161 Thanks man! I'll keep my eye out for you on there and say hi live!

[@MattOatley]

What’s your name? What do you do creatively? How are you like me? And why should I care to follow your videos? :)

[@AaronScales]

Good questions... for an upcoming video!
