I work hard at checking the negative self-talk and now maybe I can watch these links when I am feeling unsure of myself.<br /><br />Thanks Judy!

I particularly identified with the bit about him not being good at sport, of course :D and I've pinned it on my pinterest 'Talks' board in the hope that others will find it inspiring. Trouble is, it's made me want to get back to my other 'love', writing and illustrating children's books!Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813512259260074342.post-38169507079248618372013-01-10T03:02:19.335-08:002013-01-10T03:02:19.335-08:00I loved the Quentin Blake video, he's got such...I loved the Quentin Blake video, he's got such a strong style that you can't help but recongnise. I was watching a TED talk earlier by Jerrett Krosoczka on how he became an artist, I love hearing these stories. He's the link if you get time to watch. http://www.ted.com/talks/jarrett_j_krosoczka_how_a_boy_became_an_artist.htmlgooseberrymoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08065050367492169390noreply@blogger.com
