How to find beauty hidden in your work!

Hello, everone!
If you are like me, then you have spent time working on a piece of art that just did not live up to your expectations. We've all been there, and it can feel pretty soul-crushing sometimes!
I find, however, that even in pieces with which I am less than thrilled, there exist elements that I really love!
Sometimes, we just have to look at individual parts of the whole to find these elements.
In this video, I show you how I use a small matboard to reveal these hidden gems!

I hope you enjoy!
